The average American teenager spends $150 a week. Over half of the world lives on less than two American dollars a day. The amount of consumption in our culture is alarming. How does a Christian respond to it? What do youth workers teach their students about how Christians live in a consumer society? These are important questions for Christians to wrestle with. This short study cannot fully answer these questions, but it will offer two spiritual disciplines that can help you reevaluate your consumption, in light of the generous Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Vocation Growing Up – Encouraging Youth Leadership

“We want to build up teens who are willing to serve in the church, and as appropriate, might consider careers in professional church work. As we seek to encourage young people in their faith journeys, the most beneficial things we can offer them are opportunities to get involved with service and leadership in the church. When done the right way, this allows youth to feel valued and deeply connected to the Body of Christ.”
