This is soooo true!!!! So many times people think youth are "not ready" for some of the tough stuff. Let’s see, my son started Algebra last year (fourth grade!!) but my church youth are not ready to learn about doctrines such as election and Trinity. Or sometimes people think we should not do "too much" outreach(is there such a thing????) and just let other kids come to us. Perhaps I need to submit to all the ADULT classes at my church and see if they will apply it to themselves!!! Blessings to you!!!! Looking forward to the Survive Tour!!!!!!

What a great reminder! I have been given the call to lead the music ministry at the youth group I work for and our youth group/church has always struggled with this (I KNOW we are not alone). I am hoping with a lot of prayer and willing spirits we can get our program back to DEEP and WIDE not HMMM and Wide. God Bless, Joanna

I’ve had the awesome opportunity this past week and again this coming week to do just what you have shared here. To teach teens and leaders to go deep and wide. Thanks you for helping me grasp this important principle and then pass it (teach it) to others.

Great job Greg! We all need to be reminded to be "deep and wide"! Not wide literally though
