It is a good read-- I found it interesting in light of what is portrayed in the media, i.e. that only a small portion of Americans believe in God. The variances within that group are striking, however. You are right about adults needing to do more to help kids learn to make moral choices on the web and in F2F life. The importance of this is only going to grow. I'm wondering what churches are doing across the country to address this?

Digital storytelling and Web 2.0 technologies will play a big role in reaching this generation of youth. There are so many stigmas about the internet and its dangers and rightly so. Yet, so many are failing to realize that it is impossible to keep children away from the dangers of the internet. All we can do is teach high morals and expectations then help them use the tools in a glorifying way by coming along side of them and empowering them to use the tools. That in addition to open communication about what studetns are doing on the web by parents and role models. I found this article on the <a href="http://preachingtoday.com/38876" rel="nofollow">American views of God</a> and thought it might interest you as you think about the misconceptions people have about God as you seek to make him known. It is a short read but I saw a lot of the wrong things I tend to believe about God as I read thorugh it. Thanks for the link Wes.
