How does XP3 Students fit in with the Orange strategy?
The color ORANGE suggests that “2 combined influences will make a greater impact than just 2 influences alone.” Red and yellow together can create a third, more vibrant option. It’s the reason we want to put children’s leaders and student leaders in the same room. It’s the reason we want to help churches combine their influence with the family. It’s the reason we want ministries to be both relevant and strategic, to teach truth and offer students personal experiences. We believe that a student who walks into a youth group is not just the result of your ministry, but the result of other ministries and leaders who have sown into his/her life.
XP3 Students, along with the other resources available from Orange, is designed to align the home and the church to raise a generation of students. We created XP3 Students with the vision of the type of student we want to walk out of student ministry and into young adulthood. We want that student to be able to articulate his/her faith, navigate the Bible, dialog with God, personalize Scripture, have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, serve others and worship God.

How do you define wonder, discovery and passion in your topics?
At its core, wonder, discovery and passion are really just another way of phrasing what Jesus said was the greatest commandment, the summary of all the other commandments: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself’” (Matthew 22:37-39 NIV). The three experiences of wonder, discovery and passion can be defined by certain core truths that we believe are “the end in mind,” the end goal of what we want a student to believe when he or she moves into adulthood.
WONDER
I am created to pursue an authentic relationship wtih my Creator.
DISCOVERY
I belong to Jesus Christ and define who I am by what He says.
PASSION
I exist every day to demonstrate God've love to a broken world.
