There are young adults are leaving the church (for various reasons), and while some are returning as they age – many others are walking away never to return.

We know it is a problem.

There are young adults sticking with the church, but they are disillusioned with old forms and frustrated by ageism.

We know it is a problem.

Emerging adults are not the only ones who are suffering.  The parents of emerging adults are suffering in silence.  They are too embarrassed to ask for help, and have no where to go for help.

We know it is a problem.

We discuss it in terms of gloom and doom, and the conversation usually ends with us throwing up our hands in a passive gesture that nothing can be done about it.

We know it is a problem.  However, we don’t know what to do about it.

EA Resources believes that something can be done about it.  We believe that your church can become a place where emerging adults feel loved and supported.

If you are tired of talking about the problem, and want to see movement towards a solution, then let us help.
