Youth of Tomorrow's Church?

I was reading a blog just now and it just blew me away because in my opinion it is so true. I think our culture sets really low standards for our youth that they have become lazy. Here is the problem: God didn't call us to be lazy. God has called us to work our butts off to grow His kingdom and we have lost that mindset in our culture. It is no longer work our butts off, but maybe try a little harder and I emphasize maybe meaning if we feel like it.

AND…I HATE IT when people say, “the youth/children are the church of tomorrow.” BULL CRAP…they are the church of TODAY!!! One of the reasons the church is losing them in droves is because we think they will be there “tomorrow” for us to reach…but the time is NOW!!!

I am also thankful for a Lead Pastor who cares about students. I see a lot of lead pastors that would rather their youth dude wear a suit and tie rather then seeing students come to Jesus and that is a problem. I am also thankful for my church because it allows me the priviledge to work with some awesome youth. Students who love Jesus and want to make a difference now and realizing that now is the time.
