FAQs

What is the Sending Huddle?

The Sending Huddle is a 90-minute collaborative discussion at the end of the week, facilitated by leaders but driven by students.

Why a Sending Huddle?

After a weeklong journey through the Psalms, we want to give students time to review and process what they’ve learned—to capture their main takeaways and share them with their group. As a leader, we also want to give you the opportunity to remind your students that Jesus is present with them and will walk with them as they take their experiences from this week back home.

What is the main objective of the Sending Huddle?

Our hope is that your students will return home with three clear next steps to apply what they learned at Challenge and a commitment to act on one of those steps within the next 30 days. If time permits, your group can also discuss and decide on one main area to address together when you get home, based on your time at Challenge.

What is the structure of the Sending Huddle?

Your students will have the opportunity for some guided reflection, followed by a partner (or small group) discussion. Time permitting, you can also have a large group discussion and application.
