The Renegotiating Faith report addresses the fact that moving from youth to adulthood happens 5 to 7 years later than it did in previous generations. This means that identity formation that began for many current adults in high school, now happens when many young adults have left their Christian communities. “This means they are forming their identities within communities that are available to them, often in a new school or work situation.” (p 30) I’ve been reflecting a lot on this observation and what if may mean for Faith Formation and our Youth Ministry. What are your thoughts? (go to Facebook page Faith Formation at Nelson Ave and ask to join the conversation.)
