Grace in the Tension: Walking with Grandchildren Who Deconstruct
Speakers: Gabby Gustafson & James Madsen

This group offers connection and encouragement on the grandparenting journey. We gather one Thursday night a month to learn and build community with other grandparents.


Deconstruction is becoming a common part of many young people’s faith journeys, including our grandchildren. This session explores how to love them well in the midst of questions, doubts, or walking away from church, while staying rooted in hope and grace.

Gabby Gustafson is the Associate Director of Young Adults at CPC. She is passionate about inviting people into an authentic and embodied faith and has walked alongside many young adults through seasons of deconstruction and reconstruction. Gabby is currently pursuing her M.Div. at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.

James Madsen is one of the pastors on the Groups Team and has been at CPC since 2008. He is passionate about helping believers experience the Gospel in their everyday life. His wife, Anna, works on the Gospel Renewal team at Serge, an international missions organization that is Gospel-centered. They have three boys and two black labs.
