I always try to visit the site of people who leave me a comment. After my last post, this person left a comment and as I viewed their site I found an interesting entry. I have read books such as Dave Kimbell’s They Love Jesus but Not The Church which touch on this subject but this comes straight from the heart of a college student who is experiencing, living, and seeing this on a constant basis.

“It seems that a lot of adult ministers are facing a dilemma in the world.  Christianity and church are running becoming increasingly unpopular in my generation.  I can attest to being one of the many who doesn’t go to church very often.  I believe God, however, but the God I see being represented in the media is not the God me and my peers believe in.  In addition, the cult like atmosphere of church makes us uncomfortable.  We are a generation of freedom, not restriction…”

This probably isn’t “earth-shattering” news for some of us but it is definitely important for us to know and understand if we desire to make a difference. This is an entry from a college student about the way their generation views the church and why interest in the church in this age group is waining.
