Description
Summary:This essay describes the desire for freedom found among youth on three continents. It contrasts the shape freedom takes when youth get sucked into prevailing global forces (individualism, consumerism, proteanism, etc.), versus the liberty promised by Christian faith. It proposes a vision for leading youth on the path of freedom in Christ, grounded in sacramental theology and halachic reasoning. This approach is offered as an alternative or supplement to approaches grounded in narrative theology.
