Podcasts about youth takeover

In this from our Youth Takeover service, guest speaker Tim Payne explores “Identity Theft,” exposing the lies the world, our hearts, and the devil use to steal who we truly are. Drawing on powerful stories from Matthew, he shows how Jesus unmasks deception and restores our identity. Watch now to discover how you can shed the masks and embrace your God-given self.

Welcome to a special week 2 of our series, "Sent | Living into the Missio Dei". This week, our youth takeover everything from greeters to preaching; all done by our youth. Our preachers this morning bring us to Luke 15, reading through the Parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the lost son. We see here the heart of our Father, who calls us as believers to rejoice with those who have come to faith in Him, not to judge them on their past. Our hearts should be in line with the mission of God on setting the captives free, bringing grace and redemption to the story of the broken, and rejoicing with all of heaven when the sinner becomes a child of God! Are you postured to rejoice when the prodigal returns or are you more prone to question and to judge?

Three incredible youth leaders talk about the power of being planted in the house of God from a young age, and share some of their personal testimonies in their walk with God. 

Ellis Island might have been a welcoming place for many immigrants to the United States, but Angel Island in the San Francisco Bay tells a more troubling history of immigrant detention. Starting next month, the Oakland Ballet will premiere “Angel Island Project,” a dance production highlighting the stories of immigrants, primarily from China, who were detained there in the early 20th century. As part of KQED's annual Youth Takeover, high school students Nico and Maite bring together choreographers and a local historian to talk about the project and the lessons that histories of immigration can teach us today.

In today's intensely polarized climate, political conversations can quickly devolve into heated arguments. But a process called deliberative democracy has found success convening people from across the political spectrum for informed, reasoned dialogue on contentious issues. As part of KQED's Youth Takeover week, high school students Ryan Heshmati and Anaya Ertz bring together the head of Stanford's Deliberative Democracy Lab with people who have brought deliberative techniques to local government to discuss how we can put dialogue and reason at the center of decision-making. Guests: Ryan Heshmati, senior, Saratoga High School Anaya Ertz, junior, Marin Academy James Fishkin, professor of international communication, Stanford University; director, Deliberative Democracy Lab Claudia Chwalisz, founder and CEO, DemocracyNext Rahmin Sarabi, founder and director, American Public Trust Learn more about your ad choices.

After the excitement of June's Youth Takeover, our incredible youth stepped up again this past Sunday! The service kicked off with a fun and interactive game, followed by heartfelt worship.

John 15:1-8This week for our service we had a Youth Takeover and one of our lovely youth group members, Esther, spoke to us about stepping out in faith by remaining in God.

In this episode, our student ministry, "Encounter" took over the service. We were lead in worship by our high school worship team and our Youth Pastor Steven delivered the message on the body language of Jesus. Acts 12:17“He motioned for them to quiet down and told them how the Lord had led him out of prison….Acts 13:16“So Paul stood, lifted his hand to quiet them, and started speaking. “Men of Israel,” he said, “and you God-fearing Gentiles, listen to me.”Acts 19:33“The Jews in the crowd pushed Alexander forward and told him to explain the situation. He motioned for silence and tried to speak.”Luke 24:50“Then Jesus led them to Bethany, and lifting his hands to heaven, he blessed them.”John 14:10“Don't you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me.”Proverbs 16:30“Whoever winks with their eye is plotting perversity; whoever purses their lips is bent on evil.”Matthew 10:14“If any household or town refuses to welcome you or listen to your message, shake its dust from your feet as you leave.”Matthew 27:24“Pilate saw that he wasn't getting anywhere and that a riot was developing. So he sent for a bowl of water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this man's blood. The responsibility is yours!””James 4:8“Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.”John 3:16-17“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.”Matthew 27:35“After they had nailed him to the cross, the soldiers gambled for his clothes by throwing dice.”Matthew 11:28“Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.”John 10:10“The thief's purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.”

This week was Youth Takeover at City Central! Recent high school graduate and Legacy student leader, Lakiyah, brought the Word from Habakkuk. We spend a lot of time waiting and asking the Lord to move, and we learned from Habakkuk that God is gracious with our questions and ready with a plan. In these seasons of waiting, we can look to God's character, remember His faithfulness and allow Him to change our character.

It can be exhausting when it feels like following Jesus is just about me trying to keep all the rules and "be a good person." Ultimately if that's how we approach Christian life, it's going to leave us discouraged, burned out, and possibly bitter--"How could God possibly expect this of me? It's impossible!" But that's NOT what life following Jesus was ever intended to be! Learn about what it means to live freed up by the Spirit in today's message!  Inner Transformation: Better than Behavior Modification?**Understanding Inner Transformation:**  Inner Transformation is Better Than Behavior Modification **Key Question:** Are you truly changing from the inside, or are you stuck in a cycle of behavior modification without real spiritual growth?  **Main Points:**   1. **Salvation is a Gift:** You cannot earn or deserve salvation; it is freely given by God's grace (Ephesians 2:8-9).   2. **Sanctification is a Process:** After salvation, we begin a lifelong journey of becoming more like Jesus (2 Corinthians 3:18).  3. **Holy Spirit's Role:** The Holy Spirit transforms us from the inside out (Philippians 2:13).  4. **Self-Examination:** It's wise to regularly assess if you are truly living a transformed life in Christ (Galatians 5:19-21).  5. **Fruit of the Spirit:** True transformation is evident through love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).  6. **Keeping in Step with the Spirit:** We submit to the Spirit's work by staying close to Him in our daily lives (Galatians 5:25).**Scripture References:**  - Galatians 5:1, 13-25- Ephesians 2:8-9- 2 Corinthians 3:18- Philippians 2:13Join Pastor Brandon as he walks you through Galatians 5 and helps you apply these truths to your life.

At elite high schools in Silicon Valley, the pressure to succeed is intense. And according to Sophia Shao, a former student at Los Altos High School, her proximity to California's tech capital is a big reason why.  In this special collaboration with KQED's Youth Takeover, a yearlong project to highlight compelling stories written and produced by local teens, Shao talks with us about going to school in a place where everyone is expected to excel.

Sara Eyassu is CCL's Mountain West Fellow and is currently a sophomore at the University of Southern California majoring in environmental studies as a pre-law student. Last summer, she completed a teaching fellowship with Generation Teach where she taught environmental justice to rising sixth graders. This drive encouraged climate advocacy within higher education through membership on the Student Sustainability Committee of the Presidential Working Group on Sustainability in Education, Research, and Operations. She hopes to continue learning through collaborative efforts and equitable sustainability work. Sara will lead a "Youth Takeover" showcasing the work of CCL youth on our May call.

It's Youth Takeover week here at KQED, a time when we hand the mics over to local high school students. This year, we hear from teens at Fremont High School in in East Oakland. They talk about the challenges they face right now and tell us why they feel so misunderstood. And we visit the San Fernando Valley, where high school seniors have taken over one of the most anticipated rights of passage: prom. LAist's Mariana Dale discovered a program at Sylmar Charter High School where students don't just choose the theme and set up decorations: they actually grow and arrange the flowers for the big event.  Plus, why doesn't California have more school buses? How kids get to and from school is a big part of the school experience for many kids. But if you've been looking closely you may have noticed there aren't as many school buses as there are in other states. Katrina Schwartz, who's a producer with KQED's Bay Curious podcast, set out to figure out why. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In 2020 and 2021, against a backdrop of the Black Lives Matter movement and Covid-19 pandemic, school districts across the country made the decision to remove police officers from their campuses. In the San Jose area, pressure from teachers and parents pushed several school districts to increase mental health support on campuses – hiring social workers and creating wellness centers – as an alternative to policing. As part of KQED's Youth Takeover week, high school juniors Khadeejah Khan and Nico Fischer, and a panel of educators, will examine that decision, learn how different schools in San Jose have adapted, and discuss new issues around safety. And we'll hear from you: how can we create safe, positive environments for students? Guests: Khadeejah Khan, senior, Santa Clara High School Nico Fischer, sophomore, Santa Clara High School Rachel Stanek, English teacher of thirty years Tomara Hall, special education teacher, equity leader and community organizer Michael Gatenby, teacher, East Side Union High School District

Politicians have historically relied on traditional media — like television — to get out their campaign messages and mobilize voters. Who can forget the infamous 1988 Willie Horton ad? But while traditional media still dominates political ad spending, politicians are spreading their messages on digital platforms once reserved for entertainment. Even TikTok is being leveraged by many politicians as the way to engage a digital generation. As part of KQED's annual Youth Takeover week, high school juniors Ryan Heshmati and Kate Quach bring together a panel of media experts to talk about how political advertising works today and how we got there. Guests: Ryan Heshmati, junior, Saratoga High School Kate Quach, junior, St. Ignatius High School David Broockman, associate professor of political science, University of California-Berkeley Makena Kelly, senior politics writer; author, WIRED's Politics Lab newsletter Kyle Tharp, author, For What It's Worth - a newsletter tracking digital strategy, spending and trends in politics
