Your comment may help to explain why evangelicalism attracts a smaller proportion of millennials than their elders. Some observers have tried to explain the trend by saying that millennials are more progressive than their parents and traditional evangelicalism is too conservative for them.

But it may also be that, as you say, they want the church to be that "light until the world" and they're not seeing that in the movement. Thanks for your helpful perspective.
