Faithful Futures - Sacred Tools...

Josh Packard

Research-based strategies for Christian leaders to engage Gen Z and Gen Alpha 
 
In a world where young people are increasingly disconnected from traditional religious institutions and influenced by social media, church leaders face an urgent challenge: how to authentically engage Gen Z and Gen Alpha in meaningful faith conversations. Faithful Futures offers a research-based lifeline with practical tools and strategies designed specifically for connecting with younger generations in today's rapidly changing cultural landscape. 
 
This actionable resource provides church leaders with 
 
● research-based insights - fresh data on Gen Z and Gen Alpha faith patterns, digital behaviors, and cultural values; 
● practical ministry strategies - proven methods for building trust and fostering belonging; 
● digital-age tools - effective approaches for engaging youth who grew up online and think in micronarratives; 
● relationship-building frameworks - how to establish relational authority and create authentic connections with younger generations; and 
● ready-to-use resources - exercises, tools, and discussion questions. 
 
Traditional youth ministry approaches are often outdated and ineffective for digital natives who grew up online. Sociologist Josh Packard advocates a revolutionary approach that emphasizes relational authority, cultivates genuine belonging, and understands faith as an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time decision. 
 
Drawing on fresh data, innovative practices, and more than twenty years of sociological experience, this comprehensive guide equips religious leaders to understand and engage younger generations authentically. It translates complex concepts into practical strategies, addressing the unique cultural and digital landscapes of today's youth and offering new ways to resonate with their realities. 
 
Whether you're a senior pastor, youth minister, church staff member, or volunteer leader, this book provides the research-backed tools you need to build meaningful relationships with Gen Z and Gen Alpha.

Disarming Leviathan - Loving...

Caleb E. Campbell

Christianity Today Book Awards — Award of Merit for Politics and Public Life
ECPA Top Shelf Book Cover Award
A Mission-Field to Reach, Not an Enemy to Attack
Pastor Caleb Campbell has watched as Christian nationalism has taken over large swaths of the United States. And he's suffered the relational fallout of standing against it, both in his community and his church.
Campbell argues that while it's possible to be both a Christian and hold Christian nationalist ideas, Christian nationalism itself is an un-Christian worldview, rooted in ideas about power, race, and property that are irreconcilable with Christian faith. Campbell has come to see himself as a missionary to Christian nationalists, reaching out to them with the love and freedom found in Christ.
Disarming Leviathan aims to:

- provide a deeper understanding of the modern American Christian Nationalist movements and their relationship to American Evangelicalism.
- explore reasons why so many of our loved ones are committed to it.
- equip Jesus-followers with loving, hospitable methods for engaging American Christian Nationalists.
- provide graciously subversive methods for responding to American Christian Nationalist rhetoric, beliefs, and practices.

Christian nationalism has become an established feature of the American political landscape. With Disarming Leviathan, you can be prepared to confront it with compassion and hospitality, and with the truth of the good news of Jesus.
