Igniting Future is about how people who make a difference in the world actually get that way ... and the crucial roles youth ministry leaders, parents, teachers, coaches, and mentors play in this work.Igniting Future shares the stories of high impact people and reveals how their ordinary, common experiences as young people masterfully blended together to shape lives that grew far beyond common. Woven through each of these narratives is one shared landmark experience: building confidence. Not just confidence in general, but four distinct layers of confidence. Igniting Future author Tom Tunnicliff describes how these four layers of confidence work together with four specific 'epoxy-like' seams to help build high impact people. An understanding of these elements gives guidance to anyone who wants to positively alter the future by inspiring students and young adults today.Attentive parents, teachers, and mentors realize investments in education and extra-curricular pursuits are worthwhile, but that those investments alone are not enough to help their kids flourish. They also know that while some kids grow and thrive as teens and young adults, others plateau, languish, or struggle with the most basic skills. Why is this? What makes the difference?Through multiple life stories and principles, this book presents answers to these questions and ignites hope that kids can change, grow, and thrive. Parents, teachers, coaches and mentors will learn where to invest their efforts and energy to maximally impact young people who will eventually change the world. This is a unique, research-grounded book on how high-impact people grow and develop. The approach offers a glimpse into what actually takes place during the childhood, teenage, and college years that influence one's growth as a person who will make a difference. Author Tom Tunnicliff believes his new Layers of Confidence framework will give parents, teachers, coaches, and mentors the guidance needed to inspire the next generation to change the course of history one person at a time.
