I cannot speak more highly of Christian Smith's work within youth culture. His book, Soul Searching, is a must read for anyone who is currently doing youth work if for no other reason that it helps identify that "spirituality" is not a notion naturally identified within Millennial culture and Moral Therapeutic Deism replaces religious expression when theology is not taken seriously by those raising the next generation of Christians.
But there is an added bonus. There is a Soul Searching film that highlights some of the stories that are shared by this project and the movie is a great resource for youth workers to help describe the current challenges they are facing. If you haven't already, you need to check it out.
