Part of our Global Life Night Experience is a public chat feature that is provided by YouTube. This feature allows viewers to feel connected to a live experience and not feel alone in watching. We are continuing to refine the live chat feature in order to encourage the most productive conversation and interaction as possible. If this feature is distracting for you or your teens, please note you can watch the event full screen, which will minimize the chat and allow you to only view the video content. We\u2019ve also placed several filters on the chat and have moderators present to remove spam, inappropriate, or distracting content. Please note that to ensure the safety of teens interacting in the digital space, the streams take place on YouTube, a public platform in which no direct private messaging can take place.<\/em> If this is your first week joining us (or you need a reminder), here is how our Global Life Night Experience works:<\/p>\n
Send the teens in your youth group, small group, or confirmation program this link to the Global Life Night Experience: LFTN.CO\/LIFENIGHT<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
