TURNING HOPELESS INTO HOPEFUL

 

Hi Friend,  It doesn’t take being a kid—or even being a parent—to know that kids today face incredible challenges. Our culture tells them to follow their feelings, live their own truth, and reject anything that doesn’t bring them immediate satisfaction. What’s worse, today’s children are experiencing crippling rates of isolation and loneliness. Experts say that Generation Z (those born from 1997 to 2012) is the most stressed-out generation ever. In fact, they’ve dubbed Generation Z the “hopeless generation”—the most depressed with the highest suicide rate of all time. Raising and loving children in this anxious culture can feel like an uphill battle, and it comes with many tough conversations. But Jesus said, “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father’s home” (John 14:1–2 NLT).  The antidote for hopelessness and worry is the light of the gospel . . . and I pray that our children know this truth and cling to it. That’s exactly why Harvest Ministries exists: to know God and make Him known among all people, from every age and all walks of life. We want everyone to understand that the free gift of salvation—and eternity with God in Heaven—is available through the grace of Jesus. That’s also why your partnership in this vital work is so crucial. Your support will pave the way for increased evangelism and equipping opportunities that share God’s love. Through your generosity, we can reach millions of people around the world with events, resources, and content that breaks through the lies of culture with the enduring truth of the gospel.  Would you consider making a gift to Harvest today? When you do, you’ll not only open doors to new ministry opportunities, but also receive a copy of Heaven for Kids by best-selling author Randy Alcorn in thanks for your generosity!
