Having served in Children’s Ministry and in local and international partnering initiatives, the vision for writing The Generational Awakening book took form while completing a Masters in Missiology at Redcliffe College UK in 2019.

More than ever, the global Church is experiencing a discipleship crisis where as few as 10% of youth in our Christian families and churches are considered as having a clear and “resilient” faith, and increasing numbers are leaving the church (Faith for Exiles: David Kinnamann and Mark Matlock, Baker Books, 2019). Many parents and church leaders are left feeling devastated, defeated, and discouraged by this reality.

What is your dream for your family and church? How do you see things going at present? Are you seeing your youth as confident, engaged in their faith, and serving in the community? Are they sharing their faith and helping disciple others?

It is increasingly recognised that there is a crisis in family discipleship and an urgent need to make this a top priority in the Church at every level. This is what God commanded of each Jewish family and the whole community (Deuteronomy 6:7-9) (Psalm 78:3-8), and what the Apostle Paul affirmed to the Church (Ephesians 6:1-4). We need an awakening by God of all the generations in the Church today to see things from God’s perspective and discover how to more effectively nurture our children in the faith.

The book outlines a vision and strategy to achieve this; introducing fresh biblical insights, fruitful models in 21^st century cultures, practical resources and opportunities for missional families and churches to engage in local and global community transformation initiatives. Additional content is provided for those responsible for equipping tomorrow’s Christian leaders in bible colleges and theological seminaries. The global church has never been so strategically well positioned and resourced to accomplish this together in what I believe could be the greatest season of revival in history.
