We are winding down another presidential campaign season and we face a level of craziness that our generation hasn't had to deal with. I have to admit, I thought that 9/11 would be this generation's low point. It looks like 9/11 has competition.
Rumors swirl about another "Great Depression". It's hard for me to fathom that we, as a nation, could have let this happen again. Greed, a lack of discipline, and a level of disdain for those who don't agree with us have brought us to this. Where do we go from here? How do we help our teens understand it?
Some young people in your group may be going through a ton right now. I'm sure that some of the parents in your group have lost jobs or face that prospect. Our jobs as youth ministers have never been so important.
I believe that there is a bright spot to all of this. Our nation is learning that depending on political leaders and financial institutions are pointless. Many will be looking to lean on something far more substantial. Do you have any suggestions for them? I thought that you might!
