"I realise the title of this book may be shocking. But the decision to call this The Last Generation was not made lightly, nor was it done for sensationalism. I sincerely believe unless something is done now to change the spiritual state of our young people - you will become the last Christian generation." - Josh McDowell's introduction to his book: The Last Christian Generation

Are We Witnessing the Last Christian Generation in America?
A few years ago, I heard a minister make a comment that shocked me. He said that based on current trends only 4% of the today's youth would become Christians.
I thought that was an outrageous figure and set out to investigate it for myself. This Blog is the result of my research and analysis.
My conclusion is that Christians in America are in fact failing to adequately reach the next generation and that the magnitude of our failure is much greater than many realize.
Unless this issue is successfully addressed, historical Christianity will become a statisical footnote within the next 20-50 years.
You are invited to follow my research, investigate for yourself and reach your own conclusions. If you agree with my findings, I encourage you to raise awareness concerning the seriousness and urgency of this issue by sharing this information with whomever you think appropriate. I also encourage you to get involved in any way possible to help reach the next generation.
Note: It may be helpful to read this blog starting with the earliest entries and moving to the more recent ones.
