What is your Youth Pastor Teaching?

Take a look at the things youth are being taught these days by their "pastors"...

Parents Beware . . . Do You Know What Your Youth Pastor is Teaching?

I find it very sad to read about youth pastors struggling to find their identity in an ever-changing environment and trying to figure out how to minister to adolescents by reading a ton of books and things that seem to confuse them even more. Then they get silly ideas like the reverse shift train theory, where the engine is EXPERIENCE, the caboose is FACTS, and FAITH is in the middle. If these leaders don't teach the youth about Jesus from the Bible, but only offer ways to "experience" Jesus (as this youth pastor writes), how will these kids know it's the right Jesus they are supposedly experiencing? It reminds me of the boys and their encounter in the labyrinth.

And what will emerge from all this is an even more confused generation.
