| Ideally we go to young people for the same reason that Christ came to men. . . to reveal God to them with no strings attached. To love them in order to get an opportunity to preach to them. We should love them because they need love, because God loves them and wants to love them through us. This concept is one that we may have to grow into, but it is included in the idea that with Christ in us the incarnation is still in process in the world today. Incarnational ministry reminds us of our dependence upon Jesus Christ. If it weren't for Him, we would stay in some comfortable setting with friends our own age! But Christ says go, and we go in His strength, with His blessing:"again Jesus said, 'peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you'" -John 20:21 Why we do contact work? Why we have Club? Why we have Camp? Scriptural Basis |
