Why some (too many) teens leave church:

This article (link at end) has some overlap with the last one I posted.  Here is a quotation that strikes way too close to home:  ""I felt so badly about what I had done. The last place I felt I could turn was to God and the church." Rebecca ran away from God and from the church just when she needed them most."
I have to wonder how many "Rebecca"s I have known, and how many times I have let them down.


I'm not placing all the blame on the church or my church, but I know we can't escape all guilt.  


Let's be looking for ways to reach out in meaningful ways.  


Here is a place for we oldsters to start.  Let's make sure that we let young people know we care.


Young and old, I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on this.
