Karen and Anne and special guest Sarah explore a young adults perpective on today's church. Anne and Karen want to know what it's like to be a teen in today's world and in our church, what adults can do to support teens and what drives Sarah to persue her ministry internship in the church. Sarah asks Karen and Anne about their most influential moments working in youth ministry, why they chose youth ministry, and what they would change in the chuch if they could.
Today's scriptural connections include:
1 Timothy 4:12. “Let no one have contempt for your youth, but set an example for those who believe, in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity.”
Jeremiah 1:4-9 The word of the Lord came to me: ‘Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I dedicated you, a prophet to the nations I appointed you.’ ‘Ah, Lord God,’ I said, ‘I do not know how to speak. I am too young.’ But the Lord answered me, ‘Do not say ‘I am too young.’ To whomever I send you, you shall go; whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you.’
Pope Francis: “The thing the church needs most today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful; it needs nearness, proximity. I see the church as a field hospital after battle. It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood sugars! You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else. Heal the wounds, heal the wounds. ... And you have to start from the ground up.
