Cultural norms of the people refers to the way of life, the refining and developing, civilization or humanity’s diverse mental and physical endowment. Christian youth orientations and understanding of culture is not only important but among the challenging issues of our modern era. This article we will use analytical, expository, explicating, descriptive, discursive and evaluative methods to achieve its meaningful purpose of youth orientations and cultural understanding. How to orientate our Christian youth of today on the need to recognise, cherish and accept the known and authentic traditional set-ups of every backgrounds and heritages existing within and outside their vicinities is a worthwhile venture.Apart from the parental roles, the Church and State are propellers and directors of the youth educational systems through adaptation nurturing and channelling of their various talents to their expected life goals. These include inter alia, teaching them to accept and believe in God the creator of humanity and the whole cosmos; inculcating and helping them to understand of cultural norms, moral values, taboos or sanctions and certain cosmological beliefs. The youth approach to Christian life is essentially efficacious. Youths should equally be made to know that Christianity is an advocate of social justice and this truth cannot thrive in an atmosphere devoid of morality peaceful coexistence and tranquillity of purpose. This write-up is majorly to bring the youths to the lime lights, regarding many of the identities of Igbo-traditional set-ups, the needed formation of due training and their adaptation and the authentic or right cultural approach to these issues. Above all, our aim is to give the youth that quantum of assurance that, those aspects of cultural milieus and identities stemmed from the author of the heavenly universe; and this should not misguide or confuse them rather for their believe in the supreme being and authentic existence.
