Oh crap - there's the problem. Wisdom... comes with experience. Especially failure.
I've got no problem with age targeted ministry. My problem is with people who say to me, "YOU give me what I want/need/like whatever..."
Here's my unscientific case-study:
The crossing - coffeehouse with minstries targeting folks 20-40 (though everyone is welcome) being planned and executed (the ministries that is) by people who are...are you ready for this...in their 20s and 30s.
50 something divorced woman whines to me. "Why do THEY get what they want. What about stuff for single parents? What about stuff for divorced people? Who's going to do that for us?"
My answer? Um...you?
*boink*
