Abstract

In the last decade, African-led churches in North America and Europe have seen tremendous growth due to the growing number of second- and third-generation children who are now coming of age. Utilizing perspectives from the United States and the United Kingdom, this article explores the intersection of two related concerns: (1) the transmission of faith across generations, and (2) evangelism that crosses racial, ethnic, and national boundaries. As such, we utilize a mixed-method approach to explore innovation and evangelism as the next generation creates spaces of their own within their intergenerational congregations.
