Farewell Lunch at 1 PM

Ends:

Jeff Keaton, Renewanation founder, president and CEO, will be speaking to today’s youth on how to have a biblical worldview! According to George Barna, only 4% of American youth have a Christian worldview. Today’s youth are statistically less Christian and more confused about moral and spiritual truth than ever in our nation’s history. They are subtly being taught socialism, Marxism, and atheism in our public schools from kindergarten on up. Note: what a person believes determines how they act! Jeff Keaton has devoted his life to helping Christian youth have a Christian worldview. He is probably the foremost Wesleyan advocate in America who is addressing this subject with teens. Jeff is a very engaging speaker that youth will greatly enjoy.
