One Generation to the Next

A WELCOMED GUIDE FOR ALL WHO WANT TO FOLLOW JESUS In the transition from high school to college to career, a new generation of young adults is wrestling with questions like these: Does being a Christian mean aligning with the celebrity sub-culture within the American church? Does it mean adopting the views of politicians and podcasters who claim the faith as the foundation for their work? Does it mean adhering to extremist views at the center of church scandals? Does it mean blindly rejecting science or eschewing the work of justice in support of the Bible? In One Generation to the Next, Jim McKenzie draws upon 25+ years of experience teaching and leading this generation to create for them a portrait of a Christian that is rooted in the life and teaching of Jesus. This book will help readers:Evaluate how to seek peace for themselves and their communities. Learn ways to do justice as a Christian. Explore the intersection of faith and vocation. Consider the implications of Jesus' command to love our neighbor. Weigh self-interest in contrast to loving the least of these. Acquire spiritual practices to facilitate their personal growth. In an age when young adults are seeking to find their way, One Generation to the Next offers them a map to follow and a compass to guide them.
