If...many of our youth are leaving the SDA Church, it is critical for our future, and for our place in God's kingdom, to determine the cause, develop a plan to fix it according to God's plan, to attempt to put that plan in place, and then to evualate the results and our compliance with God's plan.


Another approach at answering the question, "Why do teens leave the church?" might be to focus on why our teens stay in the church.

What are we doing that's right? Why do some teens stay and continue to serve the Lord right through their teens and early twenties--only to become leaders in the church for life?

A different approach, then, to keeping our kids in church is to figure out what we're doing right, and do more of it!

How about it then? Any 20s, 30s, 40somethings out there want to share why you stayed in the church (or why your kids stayed in the church)? What is it that your church did right?
