#10 is what made me want to leave my church numerous times when I was a teenager. I would cringe every time the speaker would mention Myspace and have the band play metal with tattoo sleeves being shown off. Yeah, I know that it's just music and they're trying to appeal to the youthl, but I wouldn't expect that to happen on Sunday when I'm with my family. Youth service? Yeah, I could see how it would fit there.
Funny enough though, it seems like that's also what he talks about at #9. I grew up in a fairly "serious" Church (as some of you may know) and the youth in that church is leaving because parents wouldn't give them freedom when it comes to the Church. I really like this list and agree with it wholeheartedly, but I think there are far more issues than that. Mainly, the lack of LOVE in the Church.
