Drawing on the imagery of an athletic event where the crowd can influence the outcome of the game, Mark DeVries’ “Stacking the Stands” seminar provides parents an opportunity to learn the power of weaving a web of life-giving, intergenerational relationships for their children. Parents will walk away from this seminar equipped with the tools and community to “stack the stands” for their children. Rev. Mark DeVries, a PC(USA) pastor with over 30 years of experience in youth ministry, is the President/Founder of Ministry Architects. DeVries has trained youth pastors across the globe, authored five books and numerous articles, and is an in-demand speaker.
