Join us in this enlightening episode as Todd and Carl welcome Thomas Bergler, a distinguished professor of ministry and missions at Huntingdon University, to discuss his insightful book, The Juvenilization of American Christianity. What exactly is “juvenalization?”
Juvenilization is the process by which the beliefs, traits, developmental characteristics of adolescence become normative or celebrated for people of all ages. – Thomas Bergler
Delve into the fascinating exploration of how youth ministry has shaped the modern church, its unintended consequences, and the cultural shift towards therapeutic faith. Discover the historical roots of adolescence, the impact of pop culture on spirituality, and the importance of intergenerational worship.
If you are interested in the evolution of church practices and the future of faith communities, be sure to tune in.
Thanks to the generosity of Wm. B. Eerdman’s Publishing Company, we are pleased to offer three copies of Thomas Bergler’s book to our listeners. Enter here for the opportunity to win one.
