Young Adults: Hope for Christianity

Ever hear, “Young people are just not interested in God”?  They leave home, go to college, start a career, or marry.  Years ago, you would hear, “They’ll get married, have a child, and come back to church.”  That possibility decreases with each passing year. Are these sons and daughters still believers?  Do they know Jesus …

20-Something – And Unemployed

food lines

Scott hit the books hard to get good grades during his four years at a prestigious university. He worked part-time during the school year and each summer handled two jobs, to keep student loans at a minimum. With graduation only a few weeks away, and three months of sending out resumes, Scott is likely to …

A Word Is Planted

There I was, a few weeks before I reported to football camp, on my way to England for…God-only-knows-what. I figured, I get to quit work a couple of weeks early, take a trip to a part of England I’ve never seen – all at the expense of Dr. Bill, who I spent a total of …

A Short Window

My dad arrived at the Fort Wayne Airport about 9:30 p.m. I spotted him coming down the escalator. He looked tired, but he had a smile of enthusiasm. “It must have been a good trip,” I thought. I had no idea! I was in England quite a few years earlier, when I was 12. It …

A Short Summer

It was just after graduation from high school. I had an awesome senior year. I never did become a star at football. I like the “family feel” of the team. It’s like a community! Coach awarded me the mental attitude award. I remember my parents thinking it was a big deal. The coach said, in …

Room For Me

My fraternity brothers were putting together a Saturday afternoon pickup volleyball game in the back yard. I love my third story, corner room. It’s the best one in our huge frat house. After my third year at school, I made sure I got back in time to get this room. It faces the east in …

Awake Is A Bad Dream

“Jon, you awake?” The pounding on the door was a sledge hammer on my head. The autumn sun was streaming in my window. It felt like a warm washcloth on my face. It seemed to say, “Stay right where you are, go back to sleep.” “Jon… you in there?” I recognized the voice. “Black Jack, …

Sleeping

You know what I like about sleeping? You don’t have to think about anything. I don’t have to wonder about our next football game – and whether the coach will let me play. I don’t have to think about Sarah. I am not sure what attracts me to her, anyway. She’s okay. I guess. Maybe…for …

Christianity As A Movement

I’ve been writing a presentation on Christianity as a movement, to be presented to the Young Adults of SEND North America this week. I was developing material to identify in what ways the Christian church today has drifted from the posture of what Christ meant this movement to be. I came up with the following …

August 29, 2011 Prayer Warrior Update

The SEND North America launch year of September 2011-June 2012 is only two weeks away! There are a couple of young adults “still on the fence” in their decision making. It is a flurry of activity. The curriculum is now completed. The teachers are being invited to teach. Housing and jobs for incoming young adults …
