| Publisher Description: It's no secret Christianity is in a downward spiral as older parishioners pass away and Millennials and Generation Z turn their backs on organized religion. The situation could not look more bleak. Is there any hope the situation can be turned around? Yes, because human beings by nature seek meaning, they seek hope and comfort during times of trouble, and they seek reasons for living that go beyond self-indulgent pleasure. Christianity offers these things. But the author maintains that attracting Millennials and Generation Z into the Church will require taking the right approach.Christian leaders may ask, "Why should we heed the advice of a layman?" The reason is that the author began his adult life as an agnostic, but as a seeker of knowledge and understanding spent 40 years of study and research reconciling metaphysics and science. In the process he has written a number of popular books that are leading the way toward the adoption by the younger generations of a new worldview-titles such as "Life After Death, Powerful Evidence You Will Never Die," "Consciousness: The Hard Problem Solved," and "How Science Reveals God: What Every Thinking Person Must Know." Moreover, as a result of his research and studies, he accepted Jesus as Lord, was Baptized and became a member of Richmond, Virginia's First Baptist Church. His journey has revealed cutting-edge scientific knowledge that points to the existence of a Creator, as well as insights that point to the most compelling approach to use to persuade young, twenty-first century non-believers to reconsider what may be a negative view of Christianity and instead to follow Christ. Stephen Hawley Martin is the author of a number of titles that have achieved best-seller status in their categories on Amazon, and he is the only three-time winner of the Writer's Digest Book Award, having won first prize twice for fiction and once for nonfiction. He also has won a first prize for visionary fiction from Independent Publisher and a first prize for nonfiction from USA Book News. |
