As I continue to meet with kids in the detention facilities it is encouraging to see their interest in spiritual things. At this point in most of their lives they are reevaluating the choices they have made in the past. Some of the kids I met with today have not been to court yet so they are very fearful of what the future may hold for them. The plus side is that they are, as I said, more interested in how to put their lives together using a biblical pattern. The downside is, as soon as the pressure is off, many of these individuals will go back to life as usual. So for the moment we will do all we can to make a tiny bit of difference in their lives.
