Author: Samuel Norton With faith and testimony under increasing attack, parents can often be left wondering what they can do to help their children remain faithfully on the covenant path.Come as You Areby Samuel Norton, looks at some of the cultural aspects of membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and questions if those aspects of our lives are helping connect our youth and young adults to the Source of Redeeming Love. With the notion of creating "space," readers will understand that the opportunities to connect with Jesus are limitless, if we will give our youth and young adults the tools and the "space" to do so their way.Readers will understand that the "space" needed to connect with our Savior can be encroached upon by• the language we use• the lessons we teach• our discomfort with not having the answers• and our binary approach to lifeGiving the rising generation the opportunity to connect with Jesus Christ isn't about just making sure that they show up at church and attend activities every week. It's about making sure they understand Christ stands willing to welcome them as they are. It's about recognizingthat He will perfect them in the process of time. It's about helping them see that everyone canCome asTheyAre.
