Conversations with Three Generations of Pastors about Church, Ministry, and Culture Faith of My Fathers is three generations of American pastors telling their life stories in the context of the church. Together, this grandfather, father, and two sons manifest the sweep of history extending from the good old days of the 1950s to the postmodern shift of today. Ranging from politics to parenting to UFOs, no topic is off limits. Often heated and always engaging, this family dialogue provides perspective on the things that the church owes to its grandparents and parents, while at the same time affirming the need for today's church to define itself. These intimate conversations articulate what it really means to nurture a missional Christianity while loving, honoring, and embracing the generations that have gone before.
