[quote=Anonymous]I did YL & Campaigners. YL is the more social aspect for people of any beliefs that may be interested in learning about Christ and having fun.  Campaigners is more of a Bible study for committed Christians.

I don't think it's odd to say that someone needs to accept Christ as savior to be a Christian, isn't that really the definition of the faith? Of course that doesn't mean you aren't Christian because you didn't have a "conversion experience." The 2 aren't the same. Christ is as much a savior in the mainline as evangelical, I think this is more of a miscommunication or misconception of what that means. No reason why you can't "come to Christ" gradually through your mainline Christian upbringing. I was raised evangelical and still kind of consider myself evangelical but also a member of a mainline church and more liberal than most evangelicals (though there are liberal evangelicals out there)!  I have a kid at Blair and wish they had a YL group. The fellowship was great and gave me no desire to be a part of the party scene.[/quote]
