No Safe Spaces
Conservative millennial blogger Allie Beth Stuckey has been causing shock waves on social media with her tough talk on liberals, feminists and college campus "safe spaces."
In a recent Facebook video, Stuckey absolutely ripped the state of higher education in America.
"Since when did college become a place for parents to ship their kids off to become indoctrinated and brainwashed?" Stuckey said. "Since when did professors stop teaching critical thinking and mental fortitude? Since when did it become more important to protect people from getting their feelings hurt than preparing for real life?"
"Because here's the deal, college students: there are no 'safe spaces' in real life."

Job Hopping
I think we might need to accept that things have changed, and millennials just don’t stay in a job for that long. I’m not saying it’s right. I’m just saying it’s true.
Right now, “9 in 10 millennials expect to stay in a job for only three years.” (Barna Research)
So it begs the question, how much should we pour into millennials if they’re going to leave soon?
I’m a millennial so I know I’m biased, but my advice to business leaders would be to throw more money towards training and coaching so you can spend less money on recruiting and hiring. Here are 3 reasons to invest a ton in the millennial workforce, even if they may not stay long.

How to Disciple Millennials
Grant Skeldon visits Wingmen Ministries to teach us how to disciple Millennials. Our lives are busy. So much so that we find it hard just to keep up with the day to day tasks that keep everything we’re working for in place.
But what if we have it all wrong?
What if we found purpose reaching out to a younger generation who is actively looking for someone to show them a better way? Most of us have experienced the ups and downs of life fully and have learned a lot of powerful lessons along the way. We have learned that in order to do great things, we need people in our corner cheering us on…we need mentors.
