Teens today are busier than any previous generation in history. Between soccer practice, study groups, music lessons, dance or karate class, constant texting and social networking, and occasional schoolwork, it's amazing kids have time to breathe, much less connect with God in a meaningful way. Yet without daily one - on - one time with their heavenly Father, spiritual growth is stunted.Now youth leaders can help the teens in their group prioritize prayer and quiet time.
