For seven years, I have led a small group Bible study for teens. For seven years before that, I ministered alongside my husband to college students on the campus of a prestigious Christian university. In both contexts, I encountered students who were predominately church and youth group-going kids from “good” Christian homes. By all appearances, these kids talked the talk and walked the walk of Christianity. Yet the more I’ve come to know this type of student, the more glaring the lack of true gospel impact in their lives becomes.
Believe it or not, I am often even met by blank stares and hesitant responses when I ask teens what the gospel is.
How can this be? For the rest of the article follow me where I am today over at the Rooted Ministry site: here.
