So if you could pitch to your senior pastor to talk about the concept of "Next Gen" to the entire body, what points exactly would you want him to make? I just started reading Compassion International President Wess Stafford's book Too Small to Ignore and already in the first chapter it is rocking my face off. I was reading it out loud to my 7th grade son and I got choked up approximately 4 times. One time was just plain ridiculous actually. I couldn't get through a story about D.L. Moody I've heard a dozen times. I am so passionate about the mission of leading the next generation into a relationship with Christ that I honestly have a hard time even getting my head to comprehend how it's not just a no-brainer that children and youth aren't the number one priority of the church.
Anyway, enough about what I think. What are the driving points about this topic that don't single out parents but apply to the entire body of Christ that you think must be a part of such a series?

next gen retreat
This week the kids and youth staff from all of the campuses at our church are coming in for a couple of days of awesomeness. I can't wait to see many of my good friends and meet in person some of the people I only know from online. If you are one of the campus teams coming in, what would you most like to hear from the content development team while you're in town?
my favorite video on the internet
Although I do love a good Tripp and Tyler video and my long-time favorite was the Barats and Bereta Mother's Day video, I have decided to officially name this video by Compassion International as my favorite video on the internet. Enjoy.
