[highlight]Lesson #02: BRIEFING – The Target: Young People & Families (September 10, 2014)[/highlight]
SUMMARY: The term “teenager” wasn’t coined until the late 1930s to early 1940s. Not long thereafter, the culture began to see that it had been neglecting a prime market for too long. Today, teenagers there are two forces that could potentially shape the lives of teenagers: the home and culture. This lesson focuses on three areas:
- The origin of the teenagers
- Living in a Millennial world
- “As for me and my house…”
It’s time for us to recognize that our families and our young people are in Satan’s crosshairs. It’s time to reclaim our families.
