"The Next Generation"

The next generation is going to face a new world, it's up to us to equip them to live out and defend a vibrant Christian faith.

C.S. Lewis once said, "The sources of unbelief among young people today do not lie in those young people...This very obvious fact is that each generation is taught by an earlier generation. Nothing which is not in the teachers can flow from them to the pupil."

May I suggest we protect our children from hostile worldviews by identifying the questions they are asking and the ideas being pushed on them in popular culture. The work starts in the home and extends to the local church. May I further suggest that the church is and should be an extension of the ministry of the home.

We can help our children address the difficult cultural issues by teaching them how to apply relevant biblical principles to any given situation.
