It's not just the young people. I'm 81 and just withdrew my membership from a church of a major denomination for the reasons that Marc Yoder enumerates. I had the blessing of being instructed in the external, objective, historical faith in my earlier years and am looking for that same foundation in my search for a church to belong to, so far without success. It's heartbreaking to realize what the modern church is offering, in trying to be relevant to the culture. We are to be different, so people who are lost and searching can see the difference that Jesus Christ makes and be drawn to Him. In offering entertainment and socializing, people can find that elsewhere. They need to know that we are not a form of life that evolved from an earlier form of life, but human beings that were created for a purpose by our Creator God.
