Book Description
What is the state of faith today among younger men in the church? How is the church responding to the spiritual needs of a new generation? Armed with these questions and many more, authors Roland Martinson, Paul Hill, and David Anderson conducted interviews with young men (ages 18-40) of differing life and faith experiences, and differing ethnic backgrounds in six regions of the U.S. This new book, Coming of Age, is based on the results of this study. The study focuses on eleven factors that have an impact on the spiritual journeys of young men and offers practical advice to those who provide ministry to young men in the church. The health and vitality of the ELCA and other mainline denominations depends, in part, on keeping young men engaged in faith development and in connecting faith to life issues. The first section of the book introduces the results of the survey and provides a theological, biblical, and sociological vision for ministry to men, as well as observations about the current scene. The second part of the book targets each of the key factors observed in the study. Young men and those who minister with and to them can explore these factors together and discover ways to enrich their personal faith journeys and the whole community of faith.

| You will love the blending of the case stories with the conclusions and implications. The book gave our men's study group worthwhile discussion material. | | | | Passing Faith to our Youth Feb 8, 2006 |
This is essential reading for church leaders. Paul Hill, David Anderson, and Rollie Martinson are involved in research and writing that will significantly change how we think about church, and the relationship between home and congregation. Their earlier book, Frogs Without Legs, set the stage, and now they are focusing more specifically on how to put the legs back on the church.
