TOPIC
SUMMARY:
Our rapidly
changing world and culture presents many challenges in ministry. Amongst those
challenges is the great diversity of people we serve; not only ethnically, but generationally. In today’s church
and world, longer life expectancy means that there are now significant ministry
opportunities to four generations. Globalization, mobility, technology, and
less Biblical literacy are just a few things in our society that create a
larger gap in understanding between generations. How do we minister to such a variety
of people from different backgrounds and with different perspectives? We will
explore this question as we take a look at characteristics of different
generations and different ways of reaching those generations with the Gospel.
