Yes, the Church Can Still Reach “Kids These Days”
Disrespectful, thoughtless, destructive and selfish!
That’s what kids these days are! Including the youth in our neighborhood.
My church had a new sign installed just before Christmas. It took three years to design, raise funds and build it. It looks great. But the day it was installed, teenagers from the neighborhood were flipping their skateboards along the base of the sign, threatening to gouge holes in it.
My youth pastor caught them red-handed, and do you know what he did? He told them we love having them here, he asked them not to skateboard on the sign, then he invited them in for the church – and they came in.
What he didn’t do was get mad at them. Or call them any of the names in my first sentence.
