[quote=Anonymous]Young Life has been around for decades. It is generally upbeat and not especially cult-like; most of the kids who attend in high school move on and don’t have any ongoing connection to YL. They have some nice camps, including a beautiful facility in Saranac Lake. I went to YL in high school decades ago and recall being asked to join a more intense weekly Bible study group in my senior year, after I’d been going to YL two years. I wasn’t up for that, and declined, and then just stopped going to the weekly meetings, which were mostly social sing-alongs, altogether. One of the youth leaders made one attempt to get me to return, but left me alone when I said I had too much on my plate. My recollection is that the types of kids who got involved in YL varied a lot from school to school. At some area schools it was mostly band/theatre kids, while at others there were a lot more athletes/cheerleaders. That was probably a reflection of its decentralized structure. [/quote]
