Books from which we have gained insight:

 

Culturally Incorrect, by Rod Parsley, has been the underlying text used in our World Views Family Sunday School over the past few months.  It has been an excellent study for those of all ages in the class.  From young to old we find ourselves looking forward to the next class to get a better understanding of the various world views that have shaped who we are and how those around us think.  While this has not been a "book study" it has been a much referenced source for the class.

 

The Last Christian Generation, by Josh McDowell, is highly recommended reading!  This will open your eyes to the plight of our youth and their need for a change in the direction of the church today.

Taken from Josh McDowell's Web Site:

 

The research on the current generation of young people reveals an alarming fact: they have redefined what it means to be Christian. The majority of our churched young people do not believe Christ is the Son of God, do not believe the Holy Spirit is a real entity, and think 'doing good' earns them a place in heaven. And just as disturbing is the fact that their attitudes and behavior are virtually no different than those of non-Christians.
 
In this defining message of his 40 years of ministry, Josh McDowell strikes at the heart of the problem and offers a clear solution. "We must bring this new generation face to face with who Christ really is," Josh explains. "They know the facts, but they don't know Him. They are believing distorted views of Christianity. This means we must first model Christlikeness to them and then continually lead them through a basic spiritual formation process that sets them on a solid foundation for building a life that is authentically Christian."
 
The Last Christian Generation documents the urgency of the crisis but also provides a fresh revelation of the heart of God through seven lifelong responses of a true follower of Christ a definitive "Christianity 101." Josh makes a ground-breaking case for the need to move from program-driven to process-driven ministry. Reintroduce the real and relevant Christ to your young people, lead them through the process of Christlikeness and you may very well ignite a spiritual revolution for an entire generation.

 Our prayer at Sonrise Christian Fellowship is that we can be used to reach the young people with whom we have contact.  That we might lead them to a true understanding of salvation and their need of it.  That we would mentor and teach, fellowship and enjoy their company, but above all else lead them to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, that their eternity may be secure and that their light would shine to those around them.
