Josh McDowell speaks tonight on why most young people have abandoned the church
July 22, 2011
Josh McDowell is 71-years-old and a Christian-speaker to young people and tonight, he's speaking at the Billy Graham Center-the Cove-about why 80 percent of our youth have abandoned the church. Tonight at 7:15 p.m., you can watch him tell why by clicking on this link to be live-streamed to his presentation. He said in an interview:
Q: You and Sean will be teaching at The Cove in mid-July on “Unshakable Truth, Relevant Faith.” What will be the take-away value of your seminar?
A: Young people are alarmingly walking away from the church in droves. Probably 80 percent.
I believe by accident we not only discovered why, but historically we’ve discovered the answer. We can’t take credit for this, it was by accident—because one man, 1,900 years ago, had the solution.
What Sean and I will do is paint historically what the answer is, and every parent and grandparent at the seminar will sit up and say, “This is what we’ve got to pass on to our children and grandkids.”
