Engaging a New Generation by Frank Mercadante

A Vision for Reaching Catholic Teens. How do we reach this new breed of teens? The old formulas are now met with polite indifference. Today, young people prefer substance over sensation - involvement over indulgence. They hunger for authentic relationship. They long for spiritual experiences that are firmly rooted in truth and dignity. "This text fills a great need. Anyone working with youth will want to read it. You will better understand the religious and spiritual lives of the young and how to engage them as disciples of Jesus. It provides a wealth of ways to reach the young." - Bishop Gerald of Tuscon. "If you want to help young people develop a vibrant, life-transforming faith, read this book!" - John Roberto, LifeLongFaith Associates.
