The Broken Pipeline: What Are We Doing About Our College Students?

The idea of what they labeled “The Broken Pipeline.” What they were describing was the pipeline that is the church that ministers well to children, youth, and adults; but loses its focus when it comes to college aged kids. In other words, we lose a ton of kids from the church when they leave to go to college. While many of them come back some time in adulthood, many never do. We have a broken pipeline and the church doesn’t do a very good job addressing this issue.Questions:1.    Who is responsible for checking on this group (the 18-24 year olds)?2.    What role does the church have?3.    What role does mom and dad have?4.    What role does the young person have?
