In my news feed this week, I came across stories about the religious lives of young people.  One was about bright, well read, well connected students in elite schools who lack basic knowledge of the Christian faith.  I read another about a widespread, growing interest in astrology among millenials.  Still another story was about the aging and decline of the church. And finally, one was about science verses religion.  Mixed in it all is widespread anxiety over climate change, war, and politics. Oh, and they aren’t seeking solace by attending the church.

Jesus looked at the crowds and told the disciples.  “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.  Pray to the Lord of the harvest to send workers into the field.”  So how do we share the good news of the gospel and make disciples in this culture?  But I’ve learned that the hard supernatural part is up to  God.  And, not to suggest it’s easy, but our part is about as natural as going to work with friends.

This Sunday night, we’ll talk about it.  I hope you can be with us.
