Not all cultural desperation is created equal. I hope this personal, pastoral take on our collective richness and poverty hits you in the heart, like it does me. - Paul

You don't have to look far to see a sea change in America. Young Millennials, disillusioned with church, are walking away from it. Meanwhile, secular media spotlights extreme Christians—then attacks the one-sided stereotype they've just created. Angry Christians (sometimes with painfully ironic screen names like "peaceBwithU") type hateful screeds in online comments. "Christianity," coming to be seen as little more than a position against evolution, a position against women's reproductive rights, a position against homosexuality. Church planters, trying to cope with the changes are hatching new strategies to engage the culture—"cafe church," "pub church," "bike church." And many Christians, confused, wonder how to respond to it all.
