I think this is an issue which cuts across all denominations.
Got that right.
The most recent White Horse Inn audio would probably be of interest to you: WHI-1100 Reforming Youth Ministry, Part 1.
"Holding tanks with pizza."
Somewhere along the line a false philosophy was thrust into the Christian community that the youth would save the world. Christian adults were reduced to paying for extravagant trips for youth ministry experiences that should have been done in their community with adults serving as mentors. It is the responsibility of all adult Christians to train up youth in the way they should go.
Adults have pushed their responsibilities onto young people. According to this false philosphy young people are supposed to change the education system, stop drugs, sex, and every kind of sin while Christian adults just sit there and watch television shows that should not enter their homes.
What happened to the older women will teach the younger women, the men will train up their sons?
It is time to get back to the basics: all generations united together to reach the lost in every generation.
