    This article is inspired by a quote from North Point Community Church’s Reggie Joiner during a Get More Volunteers conference: “If you want to see a church grow old fast, if you want to see a church not grow because it’s not reaching its community, if you want to see a church become irrelevant, then create a culture that doesn’t make children and teenagers a priority.
