A Very Realistic Fear...

One of the things that scares most Christian parents is that their child would grow up in church all of their lives and then walk away from God/church/etc. These are far from irrational fears...in fact, they are very realistic fears considering some of the stats that are out there in the last 5-10 years. I recently ran across a student pastor who wrote an article/post about why young people stay in church and serve God all of their days. After you read it, I have one thought and a few questions for you.

Why Young People Stay in Church When They Grow Up


There are three things this pastor proposes are reasons that the next generation stay in church long term and serve God with their lives. One of these is the Holy Spirit's job, one is the church's responsibility, and one of these is the parents responsibility.

Are you pleading with God to do the first one, are you helping your church accomplish the second one, and how are you doing on the third one?
