Is The Church One Generation From Extinction?, Tracy Wood

180 Symposium Publications

As we grow older we find ourselves asking questions about the future of our church and its relevance to the lives of our children and grandchildren, especially if they have not embraced our beliefs. The Bible gives a definite generational prophecy concerning the “last days.” Older church leaders can create opportunities to engage and involve youth and young adults in areas of leadership to their generations. But that necessitates a mentoring and then a release with support for these new leaders. By trusting God’s Word, we will allow younger generations, inspired by the Holy Spirit, to see and do ministry …

Growing Up In Adventism: A Sharing Of Some Personal Concerns And Suggestions For Reaching Young People, Michael R. Swenson

180 Symposium Publications

In this paper I apply the revolving door model and some of the data from Valuegenesis 2 to my personal experiences and observations. I provide suggestions to reclaim Adventist young people in conversation with Malcolm Bull and Keith Lockhart’s work Seeking a Sanctuary, in which they explore the “Revolving Door” model of Adventist faith development and experience. I particularly emphasize the need to accept young people where they are instead of trying to correct their theological views before we develop relationships with them.

If Religion = Restrictive, “I’M Leaving It!” “Well, I’M Changing It!” Say The Two Millennials: Welcome To The Second And Third Generation Rebels, Filip Milosavljevic

180 Symposium Publications

Second and third generation young adult Christians have rebelled against the church of their parents, against the status quo. Therefore, in a simple two-group understanding, they have either left the church altogether or have chosen to cope by personalizing their faith. In response to these two “rebellious” groups, older generations have either pulled in their reigns against apostasy of the latter group or have chosen to exclude the mavericks and forget those considered to be “weak” who have left the ranks. What do leaders do with the alarming statistics regarding those who have left, and what do they do with …

God Has No Grandchildren, Steve Case

180 Symposium Publications

Biological births create second and third generations. A spiritual birth creates a child of God regardless of that person’s age or relationship to other biological generations. That’s why God has no grandchildren; only children. The second birth may lack obvious, tangible markers. Those who grow up with religious parents might not be able to name a date or place for their own spiritual re-birth. New environments seem more conducive for new-birth experiences. We need additional markers. Complications, misunderstanding, and power plays may arise when the first, second and third generations flatten into one generation called “Children of God.”

Understanding Predictors And Formative Experiences Of Females In Student Leadership, Dauthan Keener

Master of Arts in Higher Education (MAHE) Theses

The purpose of this study was to understand what experiences and factors led female student leaders to pursue leadership and to understand whether or not the gender of a mentor or role model of a female student is significant. Six female student leaders were participants and were interviewed using a grounded theory qualitative methodology. Responses were recorded, transcribed, coded, and analyzed to determine the central themes from the interviews. The strongest themes were the identification of organization and relational ability as important leadership traits to the participants, the influence of family and role models, the importance of the mentor, the …

The Impact Of A Ministry Experience On The Personal And Academic Development Of College Students, Benjamin Goller

Master of Arts in Higher Education (MAHE) Theses

The purpose of this study is to seek out how a ministry experience can be a developmental tool for academic and student development professionals to cultivate growth in the personal and academic areas of students’ lives. Rooted in the academic literature on service-learning and college student spirituality, this study asks how a ministry experience affects students, what part of the experience has the effect, and how students view and understand this development. By interviewing students in a ministry practicum at a small, Christian liberal arts university in the Midwest, themes were drawn out that identified core processes of the ministry …
