The document discusses several issues that negatively impact youth in homes and churches. It states that many youth have a poor understanding of the Bible and how it applies to their lives. They also struggle to see how they fit into God's redemptive story. Additionally, many youth lack the desire and ability to study and apply God's word to their lives. The consumer mentality has also skewed how youth view the church, and youth often operate in extremes by overemphasizing mission work while ignoring personal growth and study. While more technologically connected, youth experience more isolation than ever.
