Reaching Global Youth Culture

A man named David Pierce came and spoke in Bethel's chapel service this week and he is the director of Steiger International.  The best way to describe what they do is by their mission statement which says, "Secularized global youth make up the largest un-reached people group in the world, held together by common values, symbols, and legends. These are formed by the shallow entertainment industry, pop culture, and economic strategies that prey on a whole generation. This, combined with a break down in family structure and values, sets the stage for anger, despair, hopelessness, and apathy.
We share God's broken heart for these young people. global youth make up the largest un-reached people group in the world, held together by common values, symbols, and legends.
