Show Notes

The line between kid and adult has been blurred beyond all recognition. There are no firm expectations set for how and when a teen is to grow out of childhood and into adulthood. This has enormous societal consequences, and the church is not immune to such consequences. In this episode we discuss: - Why adolescence has grown so extended - The war on childhood and the war on adulthood - The problem of low expectations - Privileges and responsibilities and more.
