If you have never heard the name of David Kinnaman, then you
have truly missed out. David Kinnaman is a co-author of the best-selling book Unchristian and president of the Barna
group, a private, nonpartisan research and resource company. His latest book, You Lost Me, discusses why young people
who grew up in the church leave the church. If you haven’t had a chance to get
the book, I would highly recommend it.
Recently he has come out with a discussion guide and small
group lesson plan based on his book. The study is composed of 6 sessions and
explores why Christians who are between the ages of 18 to 29 leave the church
and rethink their faith. In this study you will discover why the younger
generation often sees the church as overprotective, shallow, anti-intellectual,
exclusive, repressive, and intolerant of doubt. You’ll discuss tough questions that
resist pat answers. And you discover loving, biblical ways to reconnect to
young people with kindness, compassion, and humility. If you care about the
future of the church, you will want to check this resource out.
