"Do you know any individuals who grew up in a Christian church and walked away when they got older? Often pastors and parents and brothers and sisters are concerned about them and their spirituality - and often they should be. But sometimes, these individuals' rejection of the church and Christian faith they were presented with as the only possible interpretation of what it means to follow Jesus may in fact be a sign of spiritual health. They may be resisting behaviours, interpretations, and attitudes that should be rejected. Perhaps they simply came to the point where they refused to accept the very sorts of things Jesus would refuse to accept."
