2026 Nebraska District High School Youth Gathering

In a world of filters, followers, viral clips, and AI-generated content, it’s getting harder to tell what’s real—and even harder to know who you really are. We spend so much time trying to get verified by others: likes, streaks, grades, trophies, approval, reputation. But no matter how hard we try, it never feels like enough. Sessions will expose two powerful lies about identity that shape how we see ourselves and how we understand what is real: I am what others think of me and I am what I do. These lies promise security but deliver pressure, anxiety, and exhaustion.

Visit with Interim Director of Y4life, Cori Meier during this event and check out the amazing Y4Life resources at the table!
