Followers Under 40: The journey away from church for Millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha
The church has a problem. We are aging, clergy are aging, and churches are in decline. So, what do we do? How do we reach younger generations? In Followers Under 40, Gilmore and Sledge take a closer look at the defining qualities and characteristics of Millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha while also exploring why they are leaving the church, with steps any congregation can take to begin reaching young adults today. Written by Kris Sledge and Rachel Gilmore, Followers Under 40 is a book that addresses the critical relationship between the church and young adults today. The authors, who are Millennial pastors, aim to examine why many churches today struggle to effectively engage with young adults while offering constructive approaches to bridge this gap.
Followers Under 40 includes three sections: Section 1 provides detailed profiles of three generations: Millennials (born 1980-1996), Generation Z (born 1997-2012), and Generation Alpha (born 2012-2027). This helps readers understand the unique characteristics and experiences that shape each generation's worldview. Section 2 explores these generations' common concerns and problems with the church, examining each generation's specific challenges. Section 3 presents five practical approaches to address these issues. Throughout the book, the authors maintain a balanced perspective, affirming their belief in the church as one of God's primary instruments for bringing about positive change in the world while acknowledging how the church has caused harm and failed in this work. Their goal is to inspire church leaders to critically examine their practices and create more inclusive, diverse, and life-giving spaces where younger generations can experience true belonging, community, and connection with God. Every leader, both lay and clergy, in every local church should read Followers Under 40. What Readers Are Saying About Followers Under 40: I commend this book to everyone who genuinely seeks to be in authentic relationship with young people in their communities of faith.
Bishop Carlo A. Rapanut, Desert Southwest Conference & New Mexico Conference of The United Methodist Church In a landscape where many are leaving the church, Kris and Rachel remind us of the profound potential for transformation that lies within. Followers Under 40 is a must-read for anyone passionate about revitalizing the church and ensuring it remains a vital instrument for good, healing, and justice in the world.
