Catalyst is all about next generation leaders. Part of our job is preparing the next generation to lead the Church. As such, we keep both eyes peeled for young influencers everywhere that are leading well, innovating, building the Kingdom.

The Young Influencers List is our attempt to keep you abreast of the next generation leaders that are doing a good job, setting an example—we give them an 'A' (or, at least B+) on their work. You might want to borrow a page out of their Trapper Keeper.

Here's the Young Influencers List for July. We've been doing this for a while, so you can find past lists here.
