A Generation in Crisis
Today's teens are being attacked by popular culture like no other generation. Hollywood, the music industry, advertisers, and the mainstream media are winning the battle for hearts of this generation. Recent statistics show that at the current rate of evangelism, by the time this generation reaches the age of influence, only 4% will be Bible-believing Christians. We must do something to reach them before its too late.
There are an estimated 33 million teenagers in the US.
1 in 3 have been drunk in the past month
1 in 4 will use illegal drugs
8000 contract an STD every day
1 million are pregnant
750,000 get abortions each year
1 in 10 have been raped
9 out of 10 have seen porn online
1 of 2 are no longer virgins
40% have inflicted self-injury
1 in 5 have contemplated suicide
Over 1,500 kill themselves each year
53% believe Jesus sinned
83% believe truth is relative
65% say there is no way to tell which religion is true
What part will you play in reaching this generation?
