How do we explain what meaningful intergenerational interaction looks like? How do we explain the difference between where we are and where we could be? I am so thankful for the hard work of the Fuller Youth Institute to make things easy to use and easy to understand. This is a very solid explanation of the intergenerational experience of most people in Evangelical America. There are, of course, churches, individuals, and ministries that are doing this and doing it well, but they are sadly not the norm. I think that we do have two tables in the church: parallel experiences of the same church and often times the same church service. Is this accurate? What is your experience of your church?
I love a lot of things in life. People. The Trinity. Humor. Food. Academics. Hot Beverages. Baseball. Hockey. Football. Puns. The Church. Adolescents. Academics about Adolescents. This blog is a mod-podge of all of those things.
