Hey it's me again! Here with another question. But first
I should tell you what's up the. Get to my question.
So, in my church I don't really have a youth group, yet I long for one. Back in 8th grade I had one for like a year and I loved it. But my church has a history of chasing youth pastors away so now that I'm in high school and this is pretty much the age when youth group is most important, I'm not getting anything. The "youth group" that I currently have isn't really a youth group at all. The kids just want to play every Sunday. And the adults there try to make us trust them.
I kinda have an issue with trust, and I really can't see myself confiding in these people. I know them and I appreciate what they do thinking if us. But this group isn't a group I can have a healthy Christian friendship with. Before when I was in the real youth group we had a great bond there was a time for play and a time for growing in our faith. I trusted them even though we were small. But people moved and now I'm left with kids who want to always play and adults who want to get close to you too fast. The more people force themselves on me the more I want to resist. I just can get close to them they are nothing more than friends. I'm stuck and it depresses me. What do I do? Is there anyone else out there suffering like me?
