Cutting-edge social science research into what young adults want out of a faith community
Purpose and meaning, healing and growth, community and fellowshipthese values have traditionally been found in church. Though they are leaving the pews in droves, young adults are still seeking these spiritual benefits. How can churches entice them to return?
Jeffrey F. Keuss thinks that's the wrong question to ask. Instead, his multigenerational team of scholars investigated how faith communities can make themselves more hospitable to the next generation of Christians. Backed by five years of qualitative and quantitative research, the Pivot NW research team offers practical recommendations for involving young adults in the community, including:
loosening demands for church membership
involving young adults in leadership earlier
addressing the economic difficulties of millennials
understanding religious trauma
Defiant Hope, Active Love encourages church leaders to let go of nostalgia for old ecclesiological norms and embrace something new, inclusive, and authentic. With thorough research and incisive analysis, this groundbreaking book contains a wealth of resources to promote the health of faith communities.
