Recent research shows that as many as 66% of young adults walk away from church once they leave home. While there are a number of different reasons for this, the underlying responsibility for ensuring our children have an active faith lies first of all with the home, followed by the church. Both of these contribute to the shaping of a worldview which in turn affects the life choices of our kids once they become adults.
In this program, Dr. Alex McFarland, founder of the ministry, Truth for a New Generation, shares from his experience as Pastor, author, and speaker at thousands of conferences around the world, about why he believes we’re losing the battle for our youth.
