The New Generation & The Holy Spirit

Why is a focus on next generation ministry so warranted in this time, and how is Spirit-empowerment shaping the conversation about it? In 2022, an international panel of scholars and practitioners convened in Seoul to discuss passing the baton of faith and Spirit-empowerment to young people. This volume records their research. Sharing biblical and historical insights, theological reflections, and data from their experiences in the field, contributors offer thoughts and strategies from diverse countries and contexts. Chapters explore methods of establishing youth in the historic faith while nurturing the Holy Spirit's new leadings in evangelism, church structure, and social action. The result is a clarion call to the newer generations' spiritual advancement and an enriched understanding of Spirit-empowered ministry that is helping sculpt the future of kingdom citizenship across the globe.
