Success in this next season comes from finding identity in Christ
How does this look practically?
1.Relationships = real and genuine face to face and cross generational (this means more then your parents.
2. Vocation = you need to see whatever you do as unto the LORD
3. Wisdom =
The third arena where the church must rethink its approach to disciple making is helping the next generation learn to value wisdom over information.
Mosaics have access to more knowledge content than any other generation in human history, but many lack discernment for how to wisely apply that knowledge to their lives and world.
Young adults are digital natives immersed in a glossy pop culture that prefers speed over depth, sex over wholeness, and opinion over truth.
But it is not enough for the faith community to run around with our hair on fire, warning about the hazards of cultural entrapment.
God’s children in the next generation need more and deserve better.
Making sense of and living faithfully in a rapidly changing cultural context require massive doses of wisdom.
But what, exactly, is wisdom?
In the ancient Hebrew understanding, it is the idea of skillful living.
As such, wisdom entails the spiritual, mental, and emotional ability to relate rightly to God, to others, and to our culture.
Proverb 9:10 says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.”
Wisdom is rooted in knowing and revering the God who has revealed himself in Christ through the Scriptures.
We find wisdom in the Bible, in creation and the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit, in the practices and traditions of the church, and in our service to others.
But many in the next generation find it difficult to move beyond being consumers of information to become people of wisdom.
For example, many young Christians admire the words and works of Jesus (information) but do not know him as Lord and God (wisdom).
They read and respect the Bible (information) but they do not perceive that its words lay claim to their obedience (wisdom).
Young Christians are the least likely generation to believe in and experience the presence of the Holy Spirit.
In addition, the spiritual practices and historic traditions of the church, which serve to deepen believers’ understanding and experience of God, often seem hopelessly old-fashioned to many of today’s young adults.
Becoming wise does not happen by simply “saying the prayer,” or by memorizing a list of dos and don’ts, or by signing a pledge, or by completing a six-week program.
Instead, it is a lifetime process of deep transformation through faith in Christ, knowledge of God’s Word, living by the power of the Holy Spirit, and engaging in rich community with other believers.
How can the Christian community help young Christians live wisely in a culture of mental, emotional, and spiritual distraction?
How do ones accomplish this?
