A new study from Barna Research finds that more than half of American teenagers are “very motivated” to know more about Jesus, and just over 75% say they’re at least “somewhat motivated” to learn about Him. The researchers noted that although teenagers are expressing a strong interest in Christianity, they may approach faith differently from other generations, and the key to reaching their demographic is through authenticity and relevance.
This data represents an incredible opportunity for believers to reach out to teenagers in their lives and impact them for Christ. The researchers advise that Christians should be prepared to answer difficult questions honestly and demonstrate how Jesus and the Bible relate to the world we live in today. What teenagers can you reach to out to with real love and concern this Valentine’s Day?
