Here is a link to an article from Agape Press. It is an article about a statement made by Dr. Frank Page, the new SBC president, regarding disturbing news about children leaving the church.
"SBC Leader Alarmed Over Young Adults 'Dropping Out' of Churches" http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/8/72006e.asp
May I suggest that the answer to the problem is not - a "new" method to "reach" any particular demographic group - but a return to the Old Paths! A return to family worship in the home AND in the church, and a return to parent led HOME education!!! That's right family worship, that is families worshiping together in the home and in the church, AS A FAMILY - NOT SEPARATE, and parent lead HOME education are the keys to recapturing the hearts of our youth! NOT MORE PROGRAMS!
WARNING - The following statement is VERY sarcastic, please stop reading if you are easily offended!
I know taking the biblical approach may seem a little radical to most of our SBC pastors, and many in our denomination would tell me that it will never work, but then again, the narrow way has never been popular!
Grace & Peace!
