Every time young Americans are preached at, their eyes roll back in their head.They have heard it all before. They don't care if you have found Jesus, they don't care if you think they are evil, and they aren't concerned with Christian morality. But why?In the United States Christianity experienced a worldly unification with conservative politics, and the faith that once underpinned Christianity transformed into a cultural identity. Hostile to anyone who does not wholeheartedly agree with their politics, Christians now chastise their neighbors rather than serve them; disparage the poor rather than help them; criminalize the refugee rather than welcome them; and legislate their faith on others rather than love them.Young Americans by and large believe Christianity has lost Jesus. They see this post-Christ Christianity disregarding Jesus' teachings and feel Christianity now does more harm than good.Research shows Young Americans still hold religious values but no longer see those values reflected in their churches. Jesus Wept helps readers see the world from the point of view of these young Americans, and understand why, as Christianity loses its values, it will continue to lose its members.
