大約1,300人聚首阿伯丁展覽及會議中心，國際靈風合作夥伴組織總幹事基斯．韋特鼓勵他們要長大，成為成熟的基督徒。
該晚聚會一開始由Souled Out樂隊領大家唱詩敬拜。接著基斯向下一代的神子民發出挑戰，要他們記住，教會增長需要成熟這個元素，如果我們繼續在凡事上都榮耀神，就會更有深度。樂隊在聚會的尾聲再次獻唱，同時參加者有機會上前接受代禱。
為了讓核心信息更能感染較年青的會眾，我們聘請了一位本地畫家（麥克．參孫），將他對於「深度、作主門徒、成熟，以及有深度的教會增長」的理解繪畫出來。他畫在一張巨型帆布上，在前面掛起來，讓所有出席者都看見。當晚聚會的參加者都收到草稿紙和鉛筆，讓他們也可以創作自己的主題圖像，然後貼在禮堂周圍的藍色壁報板上。前面又掛起了另一張大帆布，讓那些大膽的年青人在聚會過程中上前，將他們自己對於主題的理解畫出來。
基斯．韋特向參加者所講的信息，與國際靈風合作夥伴組織的熱情相呼應，我們的使命正是幫助主體世界中的教會長大成熟。

We’re hungry, angry, and depending on a sovereign God.

How long, O Lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry out to you, “Violence!” but you do not save? Why do you make me […]
