The Youth are Our Future

I had the pleasure of hanging out with Rhett (@rhetter) and his family at Highland Park Presbyterian this morning.  Some great worship and fellowship was had by all.

One of the neatest things was what the youth did during their service: They were challenged to nail their selfish desires and anything that was keeping that from Jesus to a wooden cross during the last worship song.

I was impressed, and I hope that their courage to pound some nails in front of everyone will carry them for the rest of their lives… because the Faith depends on our youth and their faith to continue on.  I personally do not think we invest as much as we need to in the young men and women of our congregation.

My prayer tonight is for them.
