Young Adults, Mega Churches and the Future of Evangelicalism in North America
Young adults are flocking to mega-churches by the mega thousands. Many medium and smaller churches that surround mega-churches feel the drain as more and more of their young families slip away to the "big" church down the street. This is incredibly frustrating to surrounding churches. Some fear that mega-churches will eventually be all that we have left as young adults continue to flock to them. Will the success of mega-churches lead to the downfall of evangelicalism as we know it in America?

Young Adults, Mega Churches and the Future of Evangelicalism in North America
This is a post from Dr. Terry Dorsett, church planting missionary with the North American Mission Board of the SBC. Honestly, I can’t disagree with what he says, as its a topic I’ve covered before, the anonymity afforded to believers by mega-churches being detrimental to the development of a strong, vibrant, and healthy faith.

The Danger of Pretending
One of my favorite questions as a leader is, "What are you pretending not to know?" I think it is a question that all Christians, especially those involved in church leadership, need to ask on a regular basis.
