"Let none despise the stirrings of the spirit in the hearts of the young. Let not boyish anxieties and juvenile repentances be lightly regarded. I, at least, can bear my personal testimony to the fact that grace operates on some minds at a period almost too early for recollection."-----"Charles Spurgeon"
One does not have to look far in today's culture to understand that the Judeo Christian worldview
that this country was founded upon is under attack. The quote above
from the late and great preacher Charles Spurgeon, I believe touches at
the heart of one of the greatest cause and effects of this culture
war. Simply put we as the Body of Christ have neglected for the most
part our God Given responsibilities to train up a child in the way he
should go(Proverbs 22:6). With Evangelism, Youth and Culture and
EYC Ministries it is our hope and desire with Gods help that we as
Christian parents and mentors will not forget our Lords great
commission. We must go and make disciples and it starts at home with
our own youth. The book of Psalms 127:4-5 states that "our
children are like arrows in the hand of a warrior". How can we teach
and equip our youth to be like arrows when all we ever feed
them are coloring books, juice and crackers on Sunday and sponge bob,
video games and i pods Monday through Saturday. We must be willing to
feed our children a biblical worldview in order that they are able to give a
reason for the hope that is within(1 Pet 3:15). My friends within
Islamic countries youth as young as 5,6 and 7 year olds are
being taught to strap bombs to their chests to murder the infidel,
while we believe we are making a difference by sending our children to
baby sitting class on Sunday and Secular Humanism class in the
government run schools throughout the week. The Joshua generation
which entered the promised land understood the power of evangelizing the youth(Deut 6:5-8), although throughout the book of Judges following the Joshua generation we see the consequences of raising
a generation of unbelief. At WorldviewYouthEvangelism.com and
EYC Ministries we are committed to raising up another Joshua
generation, fulfilling our Lords commission and reaching the lost for
Christ but we cannot do it without your help. We encourage you to take
advantage of the resources available at EYC Resources Store, subscribe
to EYC Podcast on i tunes, participate in the EYC Forum and please pray
for our ministry if you hear the voice of God speaking to you
concerning our vision. May God Bless you and your families as we Evangelize The Youth together and prepare the way for a new Joshua generation.
