What is your Church or ministry doing to reach our teens? Let us know please. LOVE George Barana research! Please encourage your Pastor to dive into all Barna research. We are at a very critical time in the Church as it continues to decline here in America. Watch the video below. Please and share it with your Pastor.
How many baptisms did your Church officiate last year? How many Children do you have in Sunday school? How many teenagers in your youth program? Is your Church carrying out The Great Commission? Are you raising up Spiritual Champions? If not, why not? I call this a ‘gut check.’ Gut check is an old term from my baseball/softball coaching years!

Although religious affiliation and church attendance are on the decline, more than half of American teenagers say they’re “very motivated” to know more about Jesus, and just over 75% say they’re at least “somewhat motivated” to learn about the centerpiece of Christianity, according to Barna Research.
Citing data from Barna’s Gen Z Vol. 3 research, which also highlights an openness and curiosity about spiritual matters among teenagers and young adults, researchers noted that the findings represent an opportunity for Christian leaders to engage them.
“This generation tends to believe there’s something out there more powerful than them. Still, many remain hesitant to embrace religion or churchgoing,” researchers said. “Church leaders should recognize that teens’ openness to learning about Jesus represents a significant opportunity for meaningful engagement.” More Here
