Twentysomethings Put Christianity on the Shelf

"A new study by The Barna Group (Ventura, California) shows that despite strong levels of spiritual activity during the teen years, most twentysomethings disengage from active participation in the Christian faith during their young adult years – and often beyond that. In total, six out of ten twentysomethings were involved in a church during their teen years, but have failed to translate that into active spirituality during their early adulthood."

-we see this in our own churches. we should work at discovering ways to encourage young people to get better engaged into church life.
