Are you ready?

"If Christianity is dangerous, then we need to act like it. Teenagers aren’t afraid of risk, but they want to know that Jesus is worth it. Young people are going to demand that we, the church, be who we say we are–people who obviously follow Jesus, which makes us “weird” in a culture based on self-actualization and self-fulfillment–or they’re just not going to bother with us at all."

Dr. Kenda Creasy Dean, Princeton Theological Seminary

(Dr. Dean was the associate pastor at University UMC in College Park, MD, the church Pastor Charles mentioned his sermon a few weeks ago)
