Interest in the supernatural is rampant among young people.  How can you equip your church to respond?

Cursed, The Grudge and the return of The Omen to the big screen.  Medium, The Ghost Whisperer and its ilk on TV.  The video game Doom.  According to the Barna Research Group, fully four of every five teenagers reports encountering the supernatural in the media.  What's more, even churched teens report that, in this area, their churches don't give them much help.

So why should your church care, and what can your church do?

You and your congregation can explore this troubling trend in this brand-new CCN seminar.

With George Barna, research expert, and author/speaker Steve Russo, you and your church leaders can investigate the eye-opening statistics in teen involvement in the supernatural.  From watching TV shows and reading the daily horoscope through attempting to cast spells and visiting psychics, to recruiting for Satanism, you'll learn about the range of supernatural activities in which teens engage.

And you'll learn what drives teens to do so: a deep hunger for spiritual experience that hasn't been satisfied—or in some cases even addressed—by the church. 

The spiritual curiosity and searching is a wide open door of opportunity for God's truth and light.

It's a call to prayer and action.  Shouldn't you share it with your church?
