A 2014 study shows that 80% of people aged 14 - 33 years old
feel that church is not important. How
can we combat this?
One of the things the church must NOT do is change the
message of the Gospel to accommodate the culture. We must be sensitive to the need to change
the METHODOLOGY, but not the MESSAGE.
Young people are looking for authenticity and consistency. They are not satisfied with those of us who
proclaim the Gospel with our lips, but fail to demonstrate the Gospel with our
lives. Young people are discouraged when
there is proclamation of the Gospel, but no practice of the Gospel.
We need to focus more on young people “becoming Christians”,
instead of on young people “doing Christian things”.
