Did you see the article in the Monday, March 29th issue of USAToday entitled, “Millennials Do Faith and Politics Their Way”? If not, you should take the time to look it up. (See http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/on-religion/2010-03-29-column29_ST_N.htm.) You’ll find the research cited there that demonstrates that this generation of students is very interested in religion. Of course, most active youth workers will immediately realize that we don’t need research to tell us that. All we have to do is spend time with kids!
Readers, please help me. I am on a quest to discover how today’s youth workers are teaching doctrine and theology to their students. I whole-heartedly believe that we are working with a generation that wants to know what they believe. So, youth workers: please send me your thoughts on this. What are you doing in your church to teach the “whole counsel of God” – including doctrinal truth and theology to your students?
You can post your comments here on my blog – or just send me a note at: melwalker@epix.net. Your thoughts and comments might be a real encouragement to other youth workers – and what others post may just help you. Thanks!
