Overview

Christianity Today associate editor Agnieszka Tennant talked with journalist Colleen Carroll about young people devoted to orthodoxy, whom Carroll described in her book The New Faithful: Why Young Adults Are Embracing Christian Orthodoxy (Loyola Press, 2002). Throughout the book, it is apparent that the concept of—and the person behind—absolute truth has captured the imagination of these “new faithful.” Nothing is more countercultural than the assertion of truth in a postmodern society, and this is becoming the rallying cry for faith-filled young Catholics and Protestants who hope to turn the heart of our nation to Jesus Christ.
