Description
Book SynopsisDespite the masses still lining up to enter mega-churches with ware-house-like architecture, casually dressed clergy, and pop Christian music, the ""Post-Boomer"" generation - those ranging in age from twenty to forty - is having second thoughts. This book gives a perceptive look at the evolving face of Christianity in contemporary culture.
Trade Review"Finding Faith offers an insightful and unique contribution to helping us understand how the Post-Boomer generation is shaking things up in American religious culture. Flory and Miller should be soundly commended for such a creative book." -- Christian Smith * author of Soul Searching: The Religious and Spiritual Lives of American Teenage *
"Flory and Miller offer valuable insight into the religious landscape in which the Post-Boomers are wokring out their religious and spiritual journeys." * Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion *
"Finding Faith turns the conventional wisdom about Post-Boomers on its head. Flory and Miller reveal that Post-Boomers are an eclectic-and not entirely individualistic-lot, one for whom meaningful spiritual experiences and connections to a broader religious community are vitally important.
" -- John P. Bartkowski * author of The Promise Keepers: Servants, Soldiers, and Godly Men *
