This younger generation is different than all the rest. We are just a completely different generation. But we are not different in that we want to rebel like the Gen Xers. We are not so solid and resolute like the Greatest Generation. We are not so inventive and personal as the Baby Boomers. But we are different in this sense: we combine all the best aspects from the prior generations and mold it into our own intricate community.
This generation can be defined in the groups of people hanging out in the coffee shop, browsing on the internet, talking with their diverse group of friends about what’s going on in Africa. We can be defined by our independent concerts in small venues where groups of people with nothing necessarily in common get together to form a dedicated and uplifting community. This generation can be defined by the way we are committed to social justice for every person in the world, the way we seek a genuine and passionate relationship with God, and the way we have blown up the status quo. This is our generation.
Another great thing about our generation is that we cannot be defined so simply. We cannot be put into a specific box. We have so many parts, so many personalities, and so many facets: and that is one of the things that makes this generation great. This little web site is going to explore this generation. It is going to try to be a voice for this generation. It is going to be for this generation.
This is our generation.
