Exodus Launches New Web Site for a New Generation
October 3, 2008
Orlando, FL- Exodus Youth, a division of Exodus
International, launched a new look for their youth web site today seeking to
better meet the needs of a new generation seeking biblical answers about
sexuality.
The improved web site, www.ExodusYouth.net, has not
only been redesigned to meet the needs of a more blog-savvy, technically
advanced generation, it's doing so in a new way. For over thirty years, Exodus
International has been reaching out to those seeking to bring their same-sex
attraction in line with their faith. Now, the organization is looking to
continue the same ministry to young people in a way that is more authentic and
aware of the real-life struggles they face today.
"It's no secret that
young people today are more confused than ever about issues surrounding
sexuality and faith," said Mike Ensley, a Youth Analyst for Exodus
International. "This web site is a place where they can find an alternative
response to the culture's dead beat message that sex is shallow and gender is
meaningless."
Ensley adds that young people are eager to discuss these
issues, but many don't feel they have a safe outlet to ask the tough questions
that this topic generates. ExoudusYouth.net is a safe
place for finding answers about God, sexuality and life.
"We recognize
that dealing honestly with these issues isn't a snap-your-fingers,
genie-in-a-lamp kind of experience. Nor is it about ignoring your feelings,"
said Ensley who has personally dealt with this issue as a teenager. "Instead it
is an honest journey of facing the reality of homosexual attractions,
discovering its origins, daily choosing obedience to God, finding healing and
ultimately discovering our true identity in Jesus Christ."
