Where Are You Investing?

Kids and teenagers. Some people cringe at the thought of spending time with them; on purpose or on accident! Some would scoff at the thought that a child could make a huge difference in the world. Some would laugh at the idea of a young person being a "chain breaker" in a family or community. By a "chain breaker" I mean someone who breaks free from generational sin and doesn't follow a path that seems to be their destiny. Kids and teenagers. The advertising agencies of the world understand their power. Who do they market all their products to? When will all communities, churches and leaders wake up and realize they are missing it when they underestimate a child or teenager? I'm so thankful to have served in churches past and present who "get it." Please invest in the youth of today. Give of your time, talents, and treasures...Wall Street is for fools these days but children are a worthy investment.

For those who understand the power of a caring heart and for those who may not realize how much our kids can do...you need to watch this. Get a tissue!
