Today's Teens Conference
“In a reality where young people are naturally skeptical of issues of faith and people of faith, Mike Gordon is one of those few communicators who this generation wants to listen to. He brings together humour, creative stories, a deep faith and a theological understanding that challenges the youth of all walks of faith, both those far from God and those who are seeking to go deeper, to engage with the message and person of Jesus.”
Melinda Estabrooks
“Best. Co-host. Ever. Mike knows how to engage and infuse an audience with high energy and infectious laughter – and in the same breath – he can create a beautiful space for silence, contemplation and thoughtfulness. He’s good. He’s really good. And he loves Jesus. A lot. I’d share the stage with him, anytime.”
