DeYoung sets up the cultural and generational problem in full — a generation with unprecedented options and the spiritual vocabulary to delay every one of them indefinitely.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.DeYoung describes the curious phenomenon of young adults who are 'deeply committed to Christian community' but never actually commit to a local church. What does he suggest is at the root of that inconsistency?
2.He uses the image of being 'frozen' — spiritually and practically immobile while waiting for direction. In your experience, what are the most common decisions that seem to freeze Christian young adults the longest?
3.DeYoung argues that the problem is not just cultural (too many options) but also theological — specifically, a misunderstanding of what God has promised to reveal. How does a wrong theology of guidance actually make decisions harder, not easier?
