Descrição
Resumo:Australian Baptist Churches are seeking to respond to the broader trend of increasing disengagement of young people from church and faith. This article discusses Australian Baptist perspectives on generational ministries from the 2016 National Church Life Survey and interviews of generational pastors and young adults. In conversation with Fuller Youth Institute's research, it explores how churches are "growing young": fostering spiritual formation and discipleship with a range of spiritual practices; cultivating relationships and belonging including less "siloed" and more "generational" connections; and catalysing holistic mission including faith-sharing, community service and creation care.
