If you look around in your church today, two-thirds of the young people who are sitting among us have already left in their hearts; soon they will be gone for good.
This is the alarming conclusion from a study Answers in Genesis commissioned from America's Research Group, led by respected researcher Britt Beemer. The results may unnerve you - they may shake long-held assumptions to the core - but these results need to be taken seriously by the church. Already Gone reveals: <ul>
<li>Why America's churches have lost an entire generation of believers</li> <li>The views of 1,000 twenty-somethings, solidly raised in the church but no longer attending - and their reasons why </li> <li>Relevant statistical data effectively teamed with powerful apologetics</li> </ul>
The study found that we are losing our kids in elementary, middle school, and high school rather than college, and the "Sunday school syndrome" is contributing to the epidemic, rather than helping alleviate it. This is an alarming wake-up call for the church, showing how our programs and our approaches to Christian education are failing...and our children are paying the price. Though the statistics reveal a huge disconnect taking place between our children and their church experience, Already Gone shows how to fight back for our families, our churches, and our world. We can make a difference today that will affect the statistics of tomorrow in a positive and Christ-focused way!

Already Gone : Why Your Kids Will Quit Church And What You Can Do To Stop It

Master Books, Green Forest, Ar

The Church is in danger of losing future generations, but only if we fail to understand the problem and don't engage them with Bible teaching that does not compromise! This powerful conclusion to Ken Ham's best-selling Already Gone and Already Compromised series offers parents, pastors and Christian educators the information and help they need to reach teens and millennials in a way that cements their Christian faith. In Ready to Return, Ken Ham presents alarming statistics revealing the reasons young Christians leave the church and their Christian faith. Discover... <ul>
<li>Why this is happening, and more importantly, what can be done about it to help bring back a godly generation</li> <li>New persuasive research that clearly reveals shocking details about views on the Church and faith by people in their 20s, known as millennials</li> <li>Conclusive evidence we cannot ignore, showing a lack of effective biblical apologetics in homes and churches, compromise with secular beliefs, secular education, and failures on the part of previous generations, contributes greatly to this dilemma.</li> </ul>
Ready to Return is more than just a clinical diagnosis of the Church's current condition and how we got here. It's a simple and powerful call to a more sufficient view of the Word of God and a much-needed focus on teaching how to defend it in a world full of skeptics and manmade philosophies. This is a call to fulfill the Great Commission in our homes and churches with effective strategies Christian parents, pastors and church growth experts need.
