<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In The New Copernicans: Understanding the Millennial Contribution to the Church, author John Seel, PhD, provides a road map to this new millennial landscape, and an antidote to being drawn off course.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Our millennial children, as well as nonchurchgoing millennials, are both the church's greatest challenge and its most exciting new opportunity.</strong><br /><strong>--John Seel, PhD</strong></p><p>Warning: There is a fundamental frame of reference shift in American society happening right now among young adults. You may think of this group as millennials--those born between 1980 and 2000--but millennials resist this label for good reason: the national narrative on them is pejorative, patronizing, and just plain wrong.</p><p>Here's what we do know: </p><ul><li>Of Americans with a church background, 76 percent are described as religious nones or unaffiliated--and it's the fastest growing segment of the population.</li><li>Close to 40 percent of millennials fit this religious profile.</li><li>Roughly 80 percent of teens in evangelical church high school youth groups will abandon their faith after two years in college.</li></ul><p>It's unlikely that the evangelical church can survive if it is uniformly rejected by millennials, and yet: </p><ul><li>Millennial pastors and youth ministers are disempowered; their perspective is often not taken seriously by senior church leadership.</li><li>Most millennial research is framed in categories rejected by millennials; that is, left-brained, analytical communication is lost on right-brained, intuitive millennials.</li><li>Evangelicals' bias toward rational left-brained thinking makes the church seem tone-deaf.</li></ul><p>What's next? Read on. John Seel suggests survival strategies--communication on-ramps for genuine human connection with the next generation. It can be done.</p>
