It is my contention that America breeds perpetual adolescence amongst its people. We are a nation of people that refuses to grow up.
I Corinthians 13:11 states “When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.”
In this text, Paul is referring to a natural phenomenon to make a spiritual application. It is natural to grow up. To become mature. To no longer act and think like a child. To put those things away and embrace responsibility, maturity, manhood, womanhood. And so it should be when it comes to spiritual matters is Paul’s point. In America however, not only is spiritual immaturity a problem, but natural immaturity is a problem.
Though some are beginning to realize and write about the problem of ‘perpetual adolescence’ in American society, few are able to isolate the causes. In this sermon, we look at three great causes for this situation – education, economics, and eradication.

Rebuttling several of the main arguments set forth by Dawkins against the existence of God and the truthfulness of Christianity, it is a great resource for anyone active in defending their faith against the rising tide of atheistic thought in our day. 53 min.

This sermon takes such thinking to task and honors the elderly. The elderly will be encouraged from listening to it, and the youth will have pause to reconsider how they view old people. 43 min.
