no time to lose

Once upon a time there was a church looking for people to lead their young people & children. And some adults said, "I don't want to leave the sweet fellowship I'm having in my adult class". But the drug pusher on the street said, " Not even the threat of jail will keep me from working with your children."
Other adults said, "We have to be out of town too often on the weekend." But the porno book dealersaid, "We're willing to stay in town weekends, too, to accommodate your children."
Still other adults said, "I'm unsuited, unable to work with youth & children." But the movie producer said, "We'll study, survey, and spend millions to produce whatever turns kids on."
Even more adults said, "I could never give the time required to plan and go to teacher's meetings." But the pusher, the porn dealer, and the movie producer said, "We'll stay open whatever hours are necessary every day to win the minds of the kids."
So....the adults stayed in their comfortable Sunday Schools and enjoyed the sweet fellowship and absorbed the good Bible study, and at times would go out of town or were available to do whatever they pleased instead.
Not long afterwards, the young people soon quit coming because they had gone to listen to others who did care about the things they did and what went into their minds.
