The sad fact is too often the young Christians in our congregations are completely overlooked as actually being part of the body, and just seen as the “church of tomorrow”. In 1 Timothy 4:12 Paul encourages young Timothy to show that he can be an example of a believer, though probably many will look down on him because he is young. He wasn’t just to be an example of a young Christian, but to be an example of a believer period!
The Azle Youth Group is a group of young people working toward the ultimate goal together! 1 Corinthians 12:12-26 discusses that the church is the body of Christ, and as one body we need to all grow together and find each other’s worth in the body. The Youth Group is not the church of tomorrow, but simply the church, therefore this is not just a principle that should be practiced for only older members of the church, but for all. The Youth Group in Azle strives to grow as individuals who are examples of those who believe, and grow as a body of Christians headed towards heaven.
