Youth Evangelism and Worldview Training

    My friends we are in the midst of a war that is being waged for the hearts and minds of our youth.  That war itself centers around the way we view our culture and its begining its meaning and its ending.  We are constantly forced to abandon divine absolute truth in the name of political correctness, tolerance and diversity.  Are young adults are walking away from the faith as the church continues to accept and even promote liberal theology.  The battleground of worldviews has become imperative in regards to the future of the church as we know it.  Whether one is talking about Humanism, Naturalism, Post Modernism, Marxism or many others the question rings true.  "Are we as parents and mentors training and equipping our children in a Biblical worldview that is capable of standing firm against the ism's?"  It is my fear, and in many aspects undeniable that one can make the argument that we are losing the battle.  Youth Evangelism has continued to be more and more watered down as we look for ways to baby sit the young ones and entertain the older ones.  By no means do I believe that the gospel and its message cannot be conveyed through entertainment but we must also understand that the youth of today want to and need to go deeper.  Unfortunately due to the lack of strong doctrine our children are living in a post modern culture which believes truth is relative and not absolute, therefore if they are to survive and carry the torch through a dark and desolate world we must equip them.  Jesus himself said in Matthew 22:37 that loving God with all our heart, soul and mind was the greatest commandment.  Many of us adhere to this commandment when it comes to the heart and soul but the scripture refers to the mind as well, therefore we cannot leave out the importance of training the mind.  As I write this post I am truly excited to share with many brothers and sisters a ministry that is breaking down barriers set up by the enemy and equipping the saints to turn the tide back as we move towards our ultimate victory.  This ministry is Christian Worldview Network founded by Brannon Howse and Biblical worldview training is their focus and passion.  I myself just recently had the opportunity to attend one of their free code blue rallies aimed at creating a sense of urgency in the culture in order stand against the enemy and fight for our Biblical foundations that originally blessed this country so.  Many well known and respected Christian leaders such as Kay Arthur, Joel Rosenberg, Voddie Baucham, Kerby Anderson, David Barton and more have attached their efforts to this ministry as contributors and supporters.  I am including a link to the free code blue rallies around the country as well as Christian Worldview Network. It is my sincere prayer and desire that each and every one of you who care about the future of our Judeo Christian culture in the same way many of our founders did, would follow these links and begin to understand the power of Youth Evangelism and culture transformation through Biblical worldview training.

    Hello. thanks for the informative article. I also agree we all need to do more to provide proper worldview training for our youths.

    I wanted to bring to your attention InterHigh Fellowship that is launching in the SF Bay Area with the purpose of providing free worldview and apologetics training for all the youths.

    Hope it encourages you.
