Youth Groups should never be about games, pizza parties,

gross games (the newest craze is making peanut butter sandwiches from the youth "pastors" armpit and eating it...) Some of the other things that a lot of youth groups are too gross, that thankfully, some parents have had lawsuits on these "leaders" because they have scared their child mentally and spiritually. 

​

Youth Groups were created so that a mature Christian man can lead the youth in a deep Bible study - to learn and grow in spiritual maturity and to learn to do evangelism. Anything that leads to dopey games, music videos, parodies of the latest form of media is watering down the Gospel Message and the usage of a group.  They should be trained to be mature men and women of God Biblically, and not having "movie night" and eating junk food. 

​

Below is a video of Pastor Paul David Washer who was invited to a "youth group event." The people there that invited Pastor Washer did not know that after he sat through their rock concert and heard what they were talking about, he rebuked them Theologically and taught them the mature, correct way(s) to be a Christian and not a "christian."
