The Disconnected Generation Video Series is part of Josh McDowell's PROJECT 911 family of product to help equip adults and youth alike to experience the relational connection that God intended. Research of our church youth shows that when they feel disconnected from adults, especially their parents, they are over 200 percent more likely to be dissatisfied with life, almost 200 percent more likely to say permarital sex is okay, and far less likely to attend church, read their Bibles, and pray.In this video series, Josh explains how adults can enter a young person's, sometimes complex and confusing world, to form a deeper relational attachment through six biblically based relational connecting points. Each of the five sessions are designed as a 50-minute lesson, thirty minutes of video and twenty minutes of group interaction.
