School Girls, Miley Cyrus, and Salvation
This brings me to my topic--kids and salvation. I read a post today on Pulpit Magazine Blog. Please go there. Our kids need to know that being a Christian is a road of persecution. If you stand for truth you will pay the price. Jesus said "count the cost." I wonder how many parents truly lay out the cost of discipleship before letting their 4-year-old run down an aisle and jump in the pastor's arms. I wonder how many kids are prepared for the difficulties that lie ahead. I thank God for Miley and the Jonas Brothers and their ability to draw kids, but let's not forget to tell our children that their popularity--if they are truly saved--is an exception rather than the rule.
