"These rich and subtle papers demonstrate that generation X is neither Western civilization's deliverance nor its nemesis." -Alan Aldridge, "American Journal of Sociology ..."provides a typology that helps readers understand GenXers and their religious needs.." -"Religious Studies Review, October 2001, volume 27 number 4 "Each chapter is unique, interesting reading and includes specific references for that particular case study (from Christian Tattoo parlors to a Friday Night Live Shabbat service).." -"Religious Studies Review, October 2001, volume 27 number 4 ""GenX Religion is a fascinating foray into the spiritual expression of a varied group of youthful seekers... The book's editors... offer illuminating chapters that attempt to define Gen-Xers and posit a theory of their religion... the book is an engrossing look at the colorful way in which Gen-Xers are making an unconventional mark on the American religious landscape." -Teresa Watanabe, "Los Angeles Times "GenX Religion looks deep into the gap between traditional by-the-book churches and solitary postmodern spirituality to find a thriving world of youthful religious gatherings-a Christian tattoo parlor, a Baptist nightspot, a Latino drama troupe, a Korean students' Bible study, Sunday services for hip African Americans, shabbat and schmoozing for Jewish singles, committed fellowships and casual associations-with hardly anyone over thirty! This is a fascinating book." -R. Stephen Warner, University of Illinois at Chicago
GenX Religion is the first in-depth collection on this generation's religious experience. The contributors, mostly GenXers themselves, offer both a disciplined methodology and a valuable insider's sensitivity as they examine the differences between GenX religion and "traditional" religious avenues.
