Study: New Generation Comfortable With Contradictions: ""This calls into question, 'How do we teach young people today?'" Barna observed. "Is preaching the best way to communicate God's truths to them, at least the way we traditionally preach? How do we get them to understand and embrace God's Word without ever compromising it while still understanding they communicate very differently from previous generations? "
I wonder if just preaching has ever been the right way. I am no expert, but it seems that it has always been loving acceptance that has drawn people towards Christ. That is what drew me into the Fellowship of Christian Athletes when I was in high school It is what drew me into a local church when I grew older. It seems to be the single most important factor to drawing youth into our youth program. Nevertheless, teaching must soon follow (and is desired). How we go about this is going to change with the Mosaic generation.
