Jack suggested, "The Righteous Faithful Narrow Road" as in ...

Matthew 7:13-14

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

That choice would at least be intriguing to young people, and would be a realistic "paradigm" to help them know that choosing a new way of life is challenging and demanding. It has been helpful to me to remember, the following quote,

"Evangelism is neither to convert people, nor to win them, nor to bring them to Christ, though this is indeed the first goal of evangelism. Evangelism is to preach the gospel."
The Rev. John R.W. Stott
