In his sermon “Three Lies We Believe About Young Adults and the Church,” George Fricks uses Matthew 4:1–11, where Jesus resists Satan’s lies in the wilderness, to challenge common misconceptions about young adults in the church. He argues that young adults are not merely the church’s future but an essential part of its present, that their struggles with faith should not be mistaken for indifference to God, and that attracting them does not require abandoning the church’s core mission or values. Instead, churches should reject stereotypes, listen to young adults’ questions and experiences, welcome their gifts and leadership, and remain rooted in the truth of the gospel, fostering authentic relationships and discipleship across generations.
