Abstract

Within contemporary culture, events dominate our leisure activities, and churches are not exempt from this trend. In the context of a study of church youth events, this research focuses on the wellbeing aspects of three growing churches and their youth events activities. In exploring the conceptualization of the eventization of faith, the research considers aspects of youth development, including well-being, from a Christian perspective. The aim of the article is to identify and consider the influences of well-being in the purposes, content, and outcomes of such faith events and their contribution to well-being in these temporary youthful church communities. It examines the concept of well-being through the cultural medium of events, focusing on case studies of the youth events of three independent, nondenominational, evangelical churches in the UK.
