'Resistance is futile', droned the Daleks in Doctor Who, and who but the good Doctor could stand up to them?
As we all know, resistance can be fairly common among young people too. Like most of us they want everything on their terms. Sometimes the most intricate planning can be wasted because no-one turns up, or there is silence during the discussion. The subject can be as silly as the wrong music on the stereo at the social, young people are experts at finding things to moan about. How do you react when your best is just not good enough? Here are some diagnostic questions to ask:
Are the young people converted?
Only the politest teenager (if that's not an oxymoron!) will carry on coming to a Bible study group if they are not converted. Perhaps the grumbling is because they are not converted and they need more time before they will respond to the gospel.
