Alone

Today's teens live in a networked world filled with opportunities to connect, share, and experience community. But despite Facebook friends and 10,000s of text messages, the majority of youth today feel disconnected, unfulfilled, even depressed.Here's the sobering situation: -	Students don't know what to do about their own future. They fail to understand their gifts and how to discover how God wants to involve them in his story.-	Students live in a world filled with darkness. The culture around them draws them away from God and His love.-	Students don't feel that their friends really care about them. They often feel used and neglected.
