How Christian Teens Can Share Their Faith in Unusual Ways

People say over and over again how rough today’s teenagers have it, how hard they have to work, how much more pressure is being placed on them to succeed, etc., etc. Today’s Christian teen faces all that and more every time they walk out the door, because not only do they have to struggle to prove their identity and stand up to society’s pressures they also have to stand up as a Christian and withstand the pressures of living in the world-drugs, sex, alcohol and the discouragement of the government to allow God into our schools.

As if they could ever keep him out.

We would all like to think we would willingly put our social status on the line for Christ if he asked us to, but the simple truth of the matter is that he does ask-and it is our teens that have to answer. Every single day. Their willingness to show their faith could have a profound effect on their reputation in high school, their ability to make (and keep) friends and how far open the doors of popularity are to them. Walking through the halls preaching the gospel not only could get them expelled, it could get them expunged from high school society.

The question is, how can teens express their faith without having to risk being kicked out of the very institution where people expect them to take a deep breath and fit in? First and foremost, what about Christian clothing? God may not be allowed in our schools, but most schools have not outlawed the wearing of Christian t-shirts, Christian hats and Christian shoes inside these hallowed halls of learning.

Christian jewelry? A cross necklace serves as a great reminder that the Lord is always with us when we are out in the world, looks great with most outfits, beautifully complements Christian clothing and effectively displays our faith in a quiet, steadfast manner that seems to tell the world, “Bring it on.” If it can dish it out, they can take it!

The type of music teens listen to can have a profound effect on their relationship with Christ-and when that is all they have got playing in their cars their friends really have no choice but to listen! If you do not want to spend a small fortune on a collection of worship music and Christian rock you can visit a music retailer online and download a collection of favorites for a fraction of what the CDs would cost.

What about Christian e-books and books? Since this country has not yet spread out into actively censoring what we read on our lunch hour or what books we trade with others in the halls, Christian book selections are a great way for teens to share their faith at school-and with series like Danny Orlis and writers like Janette Oke today’s collections of Christian books are anything but boring!

It can be hard for Christian teens to find their place in today’s society. If you are the parent of a teenager struggling with how to find God in their local high school, remember-their place is not in today’s society. It is no wonder they do not fit in! Their place is in heaven at Christs’ side, and if they continue to witness they will be there before they know it. And in the meantime, they can learn to enjoy the journey.
