You can have the best Hip-Hop / Rock concerts and fuzzy warm-feeling worship experiences week in and week out. But the most impact you can have in someone is:
-Discipleship (Digging the Scriptures / 1 on 1 relationship)
Yeah, I'm all for people coming to Christ, being baptized, becoming members, and getting plugged in. But if you don't apply this important ingredient, you are not completly fulfilling the vision God gave you.
If you are a leader, don't just pray with a young person and leave them hanging, exchange numbers (same sex please!), take them out to dinner and do life. Call them, dig the scriptures, and talk life & ministry.
If you are a young person, there are older men and women of the faith available to you. Open yourself and talk advangtage. Trust me, it will mean the world to you. Also, live as an example of Christ. Make the people you around say, "there is something special about you". Then you too can apply this principle to the people.
