A message from our Found, Eran Holt

We are here for you.

85% of individuals who make a decision to follow Jesus do so between the ages of 4-14. That's why we believe that Next Gen ministry is non-negotiable.

Our goal as a ministry is to partner with you so that no matter your church size or ministry context, you can reach students for Christ and disciple them into fully devoted followers.

Our Story

Lead the Generation was founded in 2016 by Eran & Julie Holt. After 20+ years of serving in multiple student ministry roles, they sensed there was a new mission that God had placed on their life to strategically respond to the growing crisis, not just in youth ministry, but in Next Gen (children, youth & young adults) ministry as a whole.
