This inferiority complex so many Apostolics have, and the desire to be accepted by the godless society we live in is the single most disturbing trend I see in the church today.

CS could it rather be the desire to show our young people that you can serve God and be successful in the world? Young people struggle with insecurity and low self-esteem. Many of our youth in addition to struggling with teenage insecurity also must deal with feeling alone, isolated, and misunderstood. Here is a young lady who is a member of one our well known assemblies in NYC who is loved by millions (as Dora the Explorer) and yet here she is in Charlotte worshipping the Lord, rejoicing, speaking in tongues, etc. It sends a positive message to our kids that you can be a good Christian and ascend to the top in your field of labor without walking away from Jesus.
