Rating:  Summary: Contrast and Comparison of a Generation Review: Celek and Zander help quantify the philosophies of today's generation as much as possible. They explore several of the many paradoxes in the thought of this demographic. It helped me, as an Xer and church planter, put together a church to reach people like me.
Rating:  Summary: A Must to Read For Those Wanting to Reach Gen X Review: Fantastic, insightful, accurate and not filled with fluff. Celek et al. get to the heart of what makes this midnset tick. Their focus is always biblical and on target. It's great reading for those in the lay ministry or those in full time ministry. This book will help you understand why reaching Gen X is different than reaching the Boomers. It's different approach to a different group. A must to read.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent insights on Boomer/Buster leadership styles. Review: This book is a great starting place for ministers who want to begin to understand the specific needs of Generation X. I found the insights on leadership incredibly helpful. The last chapter is devoted entirely to the study of GenX leadership styles: the need for empowerment, community, coaching (as opposed to dictating)...etc Indeed, the value of this chapter alone is worth the price of the whole book. Careful study and implementation of these informative and practical principles can assist church leadership to steer clear of, or to resolve unnecessary conflict. I highly recommend this book to the wide spectrum of ministers in leadership, from senior pastors to small group leaders.(boomers and busters alike)
