I read a report this week which stated 75% of all Christian youth will renounce their faith or lose their faith in their first year after leaving home....college-bound or not. Wow!
The report went on to say that two of the reasons we are losing our young people are:
This generation sees little relevance between the church and real life.
The church lacks adventure.
Think about how much time and money Churches spend the first 17 years on our kids. Then what happens? Maybe we need to examine those earlier years and evaluate our spiritual instruction?
Any thoughts?
