Are Gen Xers: the New Baby Boomers?
I’m GenX. My thanks to my peer and friend, Randy, for sending me the link to this article. Self reflection and self differentiation are an ongoing process.
Are Gen Xers: the New Baby Boomers?
by Nadia Bolz Weber | January 26, 2012Of course there are many exceptions to my characterization of the generation that came before me and I am painting with an awfully broad brush and perhaps lacking in generosity. But the purpose of this post is not to make my case about Boomers, it’s to say that I realize that soon, if not already, I will be the one of whom younger generations say she doesn’t get it. A day will come (or is already here) when exasperated young leaders in the church will be begging me and my Gen X peers to hand over power based in part or full on our inability to grasp the cultural changes that have taken place since we began our careers.
