In 2002 Barna conducted a study that revealed 70% of church youth left home after high school and then, consequently, left the church. Seventy percent. If your church lost 70% of its congregation yearly, wouldn't you be scrambling for an answer as to why? Well, Barna asked the 70% of youth why they left their church, and, in an open-ended question, 32% listed "intellectual skepticism." This can be anything from religion made no sense and there was no proof, to there were no answers to legitimate questions. Youth have questions. Show them that God's Word has the answers. Youth aren't afraid to ask the tough questions about faith, the Church, and life. Answer those tough questions with theologically tough responses.
