  • Dispelling Myths about Young Church Dropouts

    I agree with Lex above and I also will add that we have not made church real to them. I mean real in the sense that we have not taught them that they are the church. We are caught up in dogmatic teaching that only certain people and men can function within the church.

    A case in point came when I asked the elders of my church if my teen girls could assist in passing communion trays to the congregation. We had to have meetings to discuss the pros and cons of who we might offend. Unltimately it never happened and I had some disappointed teens.

    We are also failing to teach them the importance of having their own faith as well. This is one reason they cannot defend what they beleive. They get chewed up and spit out because they do not know what they beleive.

    We have got to do a better job of equipping our teens and college aged youth for this part of life.
