Donald Miller

“Among many things, what I love most about the INFLUNSR initiative is the meticulous thought behind equipping high school students with tools to build their own capacity for influence. INFLUNSR isn’t outcome-driven. INFLUNSR is laser-focused on developing the heart of a leader: of an influencer. Orange is proud to partner with such a revolutionary and innovative resource!"
“The number one question I get from youth workers all over the country has to do with student leaders. Everyone wants to do something for them and no one has time to do it well. INFLUNSR is the answer to that tension. The INFLUNSR collective has done an incredible job of strategically aligning timeless truths of leadership and relevant and influential voices into a culture-current “wrapper” in order to give the youth worker an affordable and sustainable program to prepare young leaders to be leaders worth following in our increasingly complicated world."
“Because we are in the information age students today are more socially aware and active than ever before. With the click of a mouse or the tap of a screen students have the ability to influence their world in a matter of seconds. INFLUNSR is the perfect resource to help students maximize their influence and leverage it for the benefit of those around them. The world needs a new generation of influencers, so we need INFLUNSR.”
“INFLUNSR is uniquely designed to fuel students in a post-modern, post-Christian culture to discover their gifts, their passion and how those mesh with their purpose now and in their future. The next generation and their leaders need this resource.”
“If we don’t enable this next generation of leaders to understand how to think — not what to think — we will hand off our world and the Church to a generation of leaders not equipped to make it better. That’s what INFLUNSR is all about.”
“What I love the most about this amazing resource is that it equips high school students with tools to build their own capacity for influence - it meets every student right where they are. This is an initiative that teaches the student to use what God has given them to fit what the world needs, not what the Church needs. INFLUNSR isn’t suggesting that students change in order to be a leader, they’re urging them to be a leader in order to bring about change!”
“A real world, real time platform that enables high school students to learn how to think and lead in a rapidly changing culture. INFLUNSR is the resource we’ve all been looking for.”
“As an artist and music industry executive, I know first-hand the unquestioned hackneyed idea regarding what it means to be spiritual influential. INFLUNSR doesn’t just help students get out of that box: it destroys the box and helps teenagers begin to connect the dots regarding their gifting, their passion and how that meshes with their purpose in life. Let the demolition begin!”
“INFLUNSR is the first strategy of its kind that effectively connects high school students with the code of influence in real-world, real-time. INFLUNSR isn’t about teaching students what to think; INFLUNSR helps students learn how to think. ”
“Our students live in a difficult and dark world. The real world. If our student ministry doesn't equip them to live like Jesus and lead like Jesus in that world, in the real world, then what are we doing? INFLUNSR is incredible because it is intentionally designed for high school students to have a specific space to discover, experience, and grow to be the leader God has created them to be now.”
"INFLUNSR is a comprehensive adjustment to growing God’s kingdom in a real and real-world way. Proverbs 22:6 has meaning for those of us that are older, but engaging today’s teenager requires a new and viable strategy. God has fueled the INFLUNSR team to author and outline that strategy. If you have ever wondered how you could do more... be more... serve more for God’s kingdom, allow yourself to be influenced by this latest manifesto that will help you fuel the next generation to be who God has called all of us to be - influential for the only One who matters. I’m happy to join INFLUNSR on this journey and can’t wait to see how far God takes it.”
Plying the power of example, each episode features an inspiring interview with a “destroy the box” leader who is making a difference in today’s culture
