Are you creating apathy?

Apathy...there's a lot of it in our world today. If I'm honest, sometimes there's a lot of apathy in my own heart and life.

But as I look around the suburbs of Dallas, I see a whole bunch of spiritual apathy. There are some days that my heart aches for kids (especially teenagers) who have a major case of "spiritual apathy." Here's some ways you can create spiritual apathy in your kids (consider it the "don't do" list).
