Synopsis

The information age has us hurtling toward change at warp speed. Policy is decided on the whim of an opinion poll. The view of society, religion, where am I going, how do I get there, where do I fit in, what is my responsibility, is in constant flux. Welcome to the postmodern mind.

Postmodern thinking is not exclusive to one generation. We have all been influenced by change. Some dig their heels in the ground refusing to budge while others change as frequently as the direction of the wind. The problem for the church becomes equivalent to trying to herd cats.

What could be harder than herding cats? Is it even possible to get such independently minded creatures all heading in the same direction? To church leaders dealing with the postmodern mindset of the so-called Generation X and Generation Y, cats might seem well behaved and highly trainable by comparison. Rusty George and Jeff Krajewski write from experience in suggesting ways to achieve the impossible. Just as cats will do what you want them to if they are sufficiently motivated, there are ways to help postmoderns decide to follow and serve the Lord. Rusty and Jeff tag-team a thorough examination of the problem and suggested solutions, and have also enlisted the help of others in providing case studies in the last two chapters of workable ministries for postmodern “cats.”
