There was an interesting piece on LICC's 'Connecting with Culture' email bulletin recently on this new acronym used to describe a generation brought up on prosperity and being treated as 'special', yet experienced enormous disillusionment as current social and economic realities bite home. (Further evidence of this in the news today - one commentator on the housing sector suggesting that with the current resurgence in house prices, most people in their 20s today have only a 50/50 chance of owning their own home if current trends continue). I wonder what you think - does this experience ring true for Generation Y readers? (And if so, how can churches be places which help Gen Yers deal positively with the mismatch between what they have been led to expect and what they are actually experiencing?).
