The Multigenerational Church Crisis (w/ Bryan Chapell) – Episode 297

The Multigenerational Church Crisis (w/ Bryan Chapell) – Episode 297

As culture has evolved, each generation has developed its own general set of values and views that may align with those of the other generations. Not surprisingly, these differences extend to the Church–how we view the Church’s purpose, ministry approaches and even the type of worship songs we sing.

In his new book The Multigenerational Church Crisis: Why We Don’t Understand Each Other and How to Unite in Mission, seasoned pastor Bryan Chapell helps pastors understand the unique strengths of each generation—uniting everyone from Boomers to Gen Alpha around a common mission. With practical strategies for pastors and church leaders, this timely resource offers a blueprint for building a more unified and enduring church.

Bryan joins Dale on today’s 95Podcast to discuss his optimism for reaching the next generations through our existing churches.
