@rac19722009 Not sure if the video gets into it or not but the reason we're called "Teen Challenge" was that the founder, David Wilkerson, initially was ministering to teens. The name was born and became fairly well know... then the ministry started to expand to adults as well.
There was a thought of changing the name but since they already had name recognition it didn't make sense to change the name at the time. David Wilkerson now has a ministry called World Challenge, ironically.

Some of those people in the videos DO NOT look like teens at all. That bald guy looks 50 at least.
