Hey, thanks for joining us once again here at Cold Case Christianity. I'm Jay Warner Wallace. Now this week I

want to talk about something I talk about a lot on our website. I write about it a lot

and I've talked about it in past podcasts, although since we're doing a new series of videos here as a broadcast I wanted to kind of cover some of those issues that maybe if you're just

joining us for the first time you have found us on YouTube you have found us on

TV then maybe this is a good chance to cover some ground that we've

covered both on the website and in podcasts over the year, but maybe we

haven't talked about it recently or ever at all here on this broadcast.

So what I want to talk about is something that I think most of us know innately,

intuitively, we have an experience, an anecdotal experience if we're leaders in the church

or if we're just parents who have young kids or students in the church in their high school,

junior high, college years.

We're experiencing something that if I was in any church setting and I asked a crowd of Christians,

if they know of any young Christians in the college

years who walked away from their church and maybe have still not returned to church.

I think most of us would see hands go up in every church across America.

We know anecdotally at least, and you might argue, well, it's always been this way.
