Does Anyone Want to Be an Adult Anymore?

Does Anyone Want to Be an Adult Anymore? Amen. Perhaps the response of the maturity rebellion crowd is to post some more articles defending their right and need to play more video games. Yes, please, that is so very encouraging. Attitude, discipline, work eithic, basic approach to life, relationships, etc., are the lasting effects of this maturity rebellion. And if this is the culture of today's young adults, what will the next generation's slide into immaturity look like? Will they rebel so much against their parent's immaturity that they embrace the opposite. Wishful thinking. That certainly has not been the trend. What's even more fun to think about is the way this lack of maturity is impacting the church. I hate to think of any further slide into youthish pop cultured antics in our worship and approach to Christian living. I don't think anyone thought about this maturity thing when they put their WWJD bracelets on.

Amen brother! I was just thinking about the WWJD bracelets today and that back when I was teaching at VVJH that it was really more of a fashion trend than a way of living. So many students would wear the things and talk trash out of their mouths and live anything but a Christian life.
I pray that this whole culture of the need to be entertained at all times will pass.
