Yes, I have seen the stirings in our own small church. the youth are so sick of what our nation has become, what the church leaders have become, they know there is better and they I think will lead the way.

Yes, I do believe so. I'm sure you do too. I know that revivals led by youth bring a new energy to to arena as long as it it a truthful mission they desire to built. When you ask if I am willing to support the churches youth, I already do. It is a mission through financial support that I do. Every little bit of support counts, don't you think.. Good luck.

Only if the mature Christians are too impotent to seek after God. We live in a culture that champions youth, vitality, newness and change. These are not inherently bad, but historically God uses the mature elders in the faith to spur on the church. I think most of what kids do these days is a lot of heat, but not much light. They have become victims of their cultures, which are by and large not Christian. Faith, repentance and seeking God are not often found in a video, seminar, concert or road show. Results of revival can't necessarily be ticked off on a sheet or analyzed in a marketing meeting. The church has revival when it repents and seeks after God. This is done through the individual hearts of the entire church, not just one demographic.
Just my two cents.

yes I do believe that a great awakening will be youth led.
I am very willing to support the churches youth; My husband and I are youth leaders.
Today's youth have to be determined and purpose in their hearts to live a pure life, truly devoted to Jesus. Have you ever been to www.battlecry.com or heard of Ron Luce/Aquire the Fire?
This man and his wife have been preaching the gospel to young people and winning souls for Jesus for over 20 years.
God sees that our young people are tired of livng in bondage, being scared in their schools, tired of sleazy clothes, music that only talks about sex. He wants to bring revival and an end time harvest and I believe with my whole heart that they will have a big part in it.
Praise the Lord! Have a blessed day!

Revival only comes through believing that the Bible is the Word of God. Not through modern false prophets the youth love like Rob Bell, who questions the cross of Jesus Christ and questions the Bible.
So the answer to your question is no, if they're following unsaved deceivers like Rob Bell.

If they're finally advocating that the churches pay their fair share of taxes then the youth have my support.

Yes. The choice between light and darkness in this generation will cause the youth in Christ to stand all that much more firmly for truth and righteousness. The seasoned Christians will be anchors and balance rods for them.

I do believe that. Our youth are a new and upcoming generation, that we see God working mighty wonders in. They are breaking through the bondages of religion and legalism and are walking free and bold in Christ. It is going to be mighty!!!
