Millennials often get a bad rap, being called lazy, or entitled, or idealistic, or naive - the modern "kids these days." But when you actually ask the younger generation what they value, as Brad Griffin often does, you may find they seek community and authenticity over trendiness and perfectionism. Maybe that's something that the American church is getting wrong, and maybe that's why less and less young people are going to church. Brad Griffin is a coauthor of the book Growing Young, where they break down through research and storytelling the ways that the church can remain relevant to youth and young adults. On today's episode, he shares their findings - and more importantly, the heart behind them.
