"Youth ministers are an irrationally hopeful breed"

I just finished reading this fantastic interview with Kenda Creasy Dean, Professor of Youth, Church, and Culture at Princeton Theological Seminary. She''s written a book called Almost Christian: What the Faith of Our Teenagers is Telling the American Church, coming out in July. That''s going on the reading list for sure. In the meantime, check out the interview. It''s long, but it''s worth it.
