First, Ask God, let him verify what I say\n\nI believe that working on your thought life helps you to become a better Christian. Phil 4:8, Jesus said in the chapters between Matt 5-7 about how if a man thinks about sleeping with a woman he has already committed adultery. Ps 13:2; Ps 94; Mark 2:8; Romans 1:21\n\nI believe in modesty, but I don't believe that God wants us to look bad. Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit so look after it and keep it nice. Just don't be a stumbling block.\n\nI know what you mean about the T.v shows. I watch  Rove he is an Australian T.v  presenter and his show is quite funny but it is regularly littered with sexualisation of people and inappropriate comments and gags. I have been feeling convicted to stop watching I probably should. \n\nBanana's is good clean comedy and very funny and clever. \n\nJames 3 talks about taming the tongue it is very difficult, but acheivable. \nPs 37 - Ask God for the desires of your heart to match his.\n\nChristianity is a progressive thing, don't beat yourself up, if it takes you less time to do something God has told you to do than last time - thats a step forward. \nYou don't swear where you usually would. Things like that\n\nHEB 12:1-2 Keep you eyes fixed on Jesus the Author and perfector of our faith.\n\nDo remember all sin is the same in God's eyes - in saying that don't throw yourself into new ones cause each of them have different natrual consequences. God knows how to get the best out of your life, allow him to guide you.\n\nP.s Congrats on being a virgin and staying away from alcohol.\n\nGod Bless you Richly sister as you continue to Grow in the Grace Knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. \n\nYou are beautiful, you are dearly and deeply loved.\n\nPraise God that you have seen you errors and want to change them. Praise God, focus on God. \n\nHallelujah.\n\nYour an inspiration.

Try the Vineyard Church.  Do a seach on the internet for Vineyard churches in your area.  The vineyard is predominantly a youth and young adult movement.  \n\nBlessings!

When I began going to church, I was the most quiet and shy person you could dream of.  I imagine I had a lot in common with the teens in your church.  One thing that helped me open up was all of the activities we got together for outside of church: bowling, hanging out as a group w/our youth ministers at someone's house. . . .   Doing this put me in a more comfortable setting and helped me to relax more.  Another thing was picking a discussion topic that you feel certian AT LEAST 80% of teens have had experiences with.  One topic I have been involved in discussing is online communities(such as MySpace) and how they affect your spirituality and thinking.  Be sure to make it clear that you are interested in everyone's ideas.  This will make them proud of what they believe, and they will be more willing to share ideas.  When I say show interest in their ideas, I don't mean "oh, that's a good idea".  My youth ministers always seemed oddly excited over anyone's ideas and made sure that comment led to the next part of the discussion so we didn't feel like our voice didn't matter.  We could see how our opinion affected the conversation.

You have to give them something to look forward to.  There has to be something attractive about it.  Music for one, if you've got the old organ droning on, you won't see a young person within miles of your church.  If you've got electric guitars, a keyboard, and a drumset, you are closer.  Teenagers will come if there is a program that is promising for them.  If it's a place that they can come and hang out and do fun things while learning about Christ.  It's a lot of work, but college students need to have a ministry dedicated especially to them while they are in school.  Single adults will go if they have friends that go.  If you can appeal to one friend then you may be able to get more, but chances are attract a single, single adult will be difficult because they would rather use their Sunday mornings to sleep in than go to church.  A later service may be the ideal way to combat that.  Good luck and prayers for the growth of a younger community at your church.

you aren't suppose to go to church to have a teen hang out. That's the house of God, you go there to worship. It sounds to me like all you teens need to get a sight of what really matters. I'm 17, and no, I haven't always been in church. I've only been in church for 2 years as of Dec. 05'. If you start looking for a church that has a teen hangout you're going to get one of them that has a wimp out pastor that only teaches what you want to hear. What kinda church is it? Who's the pastor? If you wanna answer you can e-mail me @ ssasrule this is yahoo, of course.

plz don't listen to the previous person forgive him. You do have to chose carefully as to who you go to though. It is equivalent to any counseling. It depends on you church and how they view the world. You don't  want any of the 2 extremes not too conservative and not too liberal. The media would have you think that christian counseling is wrong but so are shrinks. It all depends on how you are trying to raise your youth. It is as everything people perceive it all depends on what you want your child to learn.

I'm excited that you want to listen to Christian rock!!  There is a TON out there!  A couple suggestions:\n1-use the search feature of Yahoo! Answers- lots of other people have asked this same question, and you could print out all of those answers.\n2- Call up the biggest church in your area- usually a non-denomination is a good start- that may have a youth center where local Christian bands can play, or maybe they have big names come in every once in awhile.  Some of these have a website that you could periodically check out and maybe catch a concert or two.  \n\nThere are also a lot of Christian radio stations to listen to online that are rock.  That may be a good start to find bands that you like before you buy all of the cds.
