The Teenage Soul


I recently held a fall parent meeting for our Junior High and High school parents. As part of all parent meetings I ask the parents how we as ministry can better partner with them in helping them build a spiritual foundation in their students. Their response was," help us understand where our students are at, and what is going on in their world." There seems to be a great divide that has formed between teens and their parents. Loving parents want to bridge the gap but don't know how, teens want their parents to take an interest in their lives yet don't know how to communicate that to their parents. Thus "The Teenage Soul" was developed.

This blog is a collaborative effort to help keep parents up to date with what is happening in youth culture. We will continually discuss issues and topics that our teens and college age students are faced with. It is our goal to partner with you, the parent, to reach out to your child and to be an active participant in their life. We hope you find The Teenage Soul to be a great resource as you endeavor through the journey of parenting a teen.

Check it out and let me know what you think!!
