Session Title: They like Jesus but not the Church

If you get nothing else:
Live a life of Integrity
Take care of your students
Evangelism is still important

Scan the landscape-
What does your community think of Jesus?
-Jesus is my Homeboy t-shirt
-Jesus action figures
-Jesus band aids
-Answer me Jesus “8 ball”
-rock star Jesus

The Bad News. . .
There is a growing disinterest in Christiananity and the Church

Gandi said, “I like your Christ, but not your Christians”

Pastors are creepy even though many don’t know any

Be in the world/culture but keep them from the evil one

How are we evangelizing?
-Testamints
-Christian Poker chips
-Products instead of personal relationships

There is hope! Lots of Hope!

Most Churches and Christians are not what the perceptions are

-You personally are the Church
-You can change the future
-You don’t have to be extremly cool, just extremly available
