We are the global generation. Urbanized and connected, we believe in freedom, equality, democracy, and justice. We are free and in control. We want everything now, but really, we don’t know what we want.
We have never been so close and at the same time so far from each other, never before so confused by life, its meaning, and its purpose. We have no hope, and we don’t know what to believe anymore. We are the Global Youth Culture, and this is our cry.
But God is on a mission and His heart is broken for this lost generation. The message of His love—the gospel—is for everyone, and it is not right that young people today don’t get to hear it because we’re not making it accessible to them.
They don’t come to us, so we need to go to them.
Luke serves as the European Director for Steiger, based in Wrocław, Poland, with his wife Ania and their two children.
Luke’s passion is in evangelism and discipleship among the alternative scenes of the Global Youth Culture. In previous years, Luke worked with Steiger Brazil, guiding a Brazilian version of the band, No Longer Music; the community house "Espaco Coletivo”; and a movement of evangelistic art and music events called Manifeste. In more recent years Luke has helped establish Steiger teams in Poland, Germany, Finland, Portugal, Ukraine, Belarus and Russia. His vision for Steiger in Europe is to see Jesus proclaimed to young people all over the continent.
Luke often speaks around the globe, sharing the vision of Steiger in churches and conferences, as well as teaching each year at the Steiger Missions School on the topics of Evangelism and Discipleship. To invite Luke to speak write to europe@steiger.org

“For anyone who has the heart to reach this global youth culture that is being destroyed all around us I highly recommend that you read Luke Greenwood‘s book! He speaks with authority and with God’s broken heart as he shares principles to communicate the love of Jesus to a whole demographic of people all around the world crying out for answers. Read this book or die!”
David Pierce - founder of Steiger International and the band No Longer Music, author of Rock Priest and other titles
“Luke Greenwood’s personal story and calling will inspire and challenge you to join in a movement of Jesus activists to reach the Global Youth Culture with the love of Christ. Like the Apostle Paul, Luke’s passion is that “Those who were never told of him – they’ll see him! Those who’ve never heard of him - they’ll get the message!” (from Romans 15:17-21 The Message). This book boldly declares the need, offers relevant solutions and provides practical ideas for following in the steps of Jesus to reach a group of people who are largely invisible to the traditional church.”
