Book Review: Engaging a New Generation by Frank Mercadante

Book Review: Engaging a New Generation by Frank Mercadante

This is a wonderful, informative, and engaging book for parents of teens, youth ministers, and pastors.  This book focuses on Millennial teens, who were born from 1981-2002. The author focuses how they are collectors of experiences and relationships.  They are full engaged in a world, which they want to make a difference to. They want to encounter God, in which they will experience him personally. He talks about  how youth ministries need to engage them in their faith through apologetics, faith development, and about the New Evangelization, called Immanuelization(God is with us). This approach moves from a program and agenda centered approach to a people and presence centered focus.  I highly recommend this book for parents of teens.
