Image of a youth pastor

Ok. I know that this is going to sound bad but I am going to ask it anyway.

Am I the only one that can spot a youth pastor a mile away? I don’t mean all youth pastors, but certain people that you just know are youth pastors (and confirm through casual conversation).

This is how I know. Typically it’s a man in his mid to late 40’s sporting a mouche, wearing clothes too young for him but a decade beyond current, a leather cross bracelet and some type of cross necklace (not gold).

I am thankful that this trend was not en vogue when I was young. I could only imagine someone my father’s age coming out looking like Ted Nugent (the young crazy rocker, not the old crazy hunter).
