It outlines Millennials as a generation and the impact their shared values, allegiances, and assumptions will have on your church or organization as you make space for their ideas and influence. It recounts Millennials’ perspectives on worship and community spaces and shares practitioners’ views on the impact of culture, ministry, leadership and facilities on design.'
