Domain Names and Youth Ministry.

I love youth ministry.  Today I got to hang out with a group of  5-8 grade students and play dodgeball.  This will sound lame but I actually like to get hit right at the beginning of the game so I can sit on the floor and watch everyone play.  Today I got hit at the same time as a 6th grader named Eric.  We sat across the line from each other and just laughed and tried to figure out silly games to play.  At the same time a couple other students and I started a silly game where we rolled balls to each other.   None of this really makes any sense except that at the same time I was doing this I was thinking about how much I love being around those kids and how sad I am to know the statistics that say most of them won't be believers by the age of 25.  

So that's wehre the Domain names come in.  I have some great friends who have been encouraging me to do some writing.  I've had a few articles published recently and I'm thinking about writing a couple of books.There are a few ideas I have  that I think are really good (I want I believe this) and I'm working on getting them put together in formats that will make sense to publishers. 

So today I bought 2 domain names.  I'm not ready to reveal what they are here on the blog but I think that one of them is helpful for Youth Ministry and one of them is more of an overall challenge to Western Christianity.  

That's all I got.  I could use some prayer.

    they’re believers now but won’t be believers when they’re 25? interesting theology…

    Wooka- Maybe a better way for me to say that is they are believers now but many not be walking with the Lord with their lifestyle when they are 25. That doesnt mean they will lose their faith but it means that their faith may not be a significant part of their existence. Thats what the statistics show.
    Thanks for questioning me on that.
