In an increasingly secular culture, most children in Great Britain grow up without the privilege of being raised in a Christian home.
As a result, thousands in this country come to Christ not through the teaching and modelling of Christian parents but due to some sort of outside influence - a Christian friend at school, a book they read, a talk they are taken to by a colleague at work.
Having become Christians, these new converts gradually see that their mindset, values and motivation are now at odds with that of their own parents, who, however moral, upright and loving, are opposed to Christ and cut off from God. This realisation gives rise to a variety of problems: both for the children as they seek to love their parents and share the gospel with them, and for the parents as they come to terms with the huge change that has taken place in their offspring.
