Three years ago at this time, our RIH team was making preparations to host 50 young adults on campus at Augsburg University from across the country. The purpose of this gathering was to listen to the stories of younger generations as they shared their experiences of gratitude, hopefulness and frustration in the church. Collectively these stories spoke to the hunger of this generation for a more hopeful and thriving world. The young adults gathered also shared a belief that God is calling the church to engage seriously in that vision, no matter the challenges.
This gathering unleashed a much longer journey to amplify the voices of younger generations through the creation of a multi-authored book. We are beyond proud and humbled to share that Hungry for Hope: Letters to the church from young adults, is now officially released!
Our local bookstore, Moon Palace books has it available! https://moonpalacebooks.com/item/g2mK5awmMGbRua_p8FxfNg
