Young people don’t value the church because it doesn’t produce value for them. In the past, the church served as a physical gathering space and a real social pillar. The church wasn’t just accepting of young folks, but catered to them with dances, volunteer events, and social outings designed to let young folks meet one-another. These weren’t just aimed at teens, but young professionals, too. As a result, young professionals met one-another, got married in the church, and raised their kids in the church.

Today, churches tend to cater only to two demographics:
1. Parents of school-aged children, who’s children they want to enroll in their church schools
2. Retirees

As a result, young folks feel pushed out rather than welcomed and included. They feel ostracized rather than uplifted. Young folks really value community, something that feels extremely lacking in our current environment, but they won’t trade their time for community somewhere that feels like they’re not wanted.
