“The MySpace Cry”

Sunday, March 18th, 2007

By Jeremy Del Rio, Esq. An article in Charisma Magazine , March 2007.

MySpace has become a cultural phenomenon among teens in America and among the twenty something. Jeremy Del Rio makes a plea in this article to reach out and minister to young people on MySpace. He says:

“Perhaps what we must do first is try to understand them by inhabiting their space and truly listen to them. Then we can move on to praying for them, forgiving them, restoring them, guiding them and loving them.”

A great post for Youth Ministers and Pastors to read and consider.             *Top
