“The difference is not that America uniquely descended into darkness. The real obscenity is not that one nation has a shameful history. It is the childish belief that shame belongs to one nation alone. History is not a contest in innocence.”

Great Read…

@JDShuttlesworth FINALLY, this is not meant to be an argumentative social thread. Just wanted to add context.

This is my 41st year in youth ministry in our movement. And while I believe there are other reasons for UVF closing, a lack of modeling a commitment to Next Gen is not one of them.

@JDShuttlesworth • COMMITMENT (the AG was awarded a major Lilly grant to train/credential young people - the program is housed at Evangel University in Springfield, MO

And, we are the only U.S. denomination who has Next Gen Office representation in every state.

I can’t even explain to you what happened in this room in St. Louis, Missouri @agyouth Convention & Fine Arts

I wept as these Indian teenagers and their families filled the room with praise and worship and prayer to Christ

The nations have come to lead us in worship…

Some great research for spiritual leaders and our topic management

My advice:

1. Speak TO the culture
2. Speak FROM the Scriptures

We should be preaching the text more than the times!

Please read this…
