How can we get our youth grounded in what they believe?

Thanks.


I posted an update on her in the prayer request thread

I know I posted this in the prayer request thread, but would everyone please keep Judy, the girl I mentioned in my first post here in prayer. She attempted suicide today and is in the hospital

She will be in my prayers at prayer meeting today, Bobbiesue.

Another side of getting youth grounded is teaching them how to deal with the emotional hurts that will come from the mistakes or intentional actions of others in the church and outside the church.  In many cases the treck out of the church starts with a wounded and bitter spirit that never heals.

Just a thought.  Our young people will get rooted and grounded in the Truth when they see the older people making an example.  Just a thought.

But you need to be more than an example. The kids will just think you're doing your thing and they want to do their own thing.  You have to also teach while living the example.

I've seen parents being really good examples, but the kids don't get it. They have to be taught how to live and where to find the truth.
