We have said that the inward, fatherless generation desperately wants to change the world in which they live but tends to act spastically and convulsively in the face of a lack of a credible alternative. How can the Christian leader direct their explosive energy into creative channels and really be an agent of change? It might sound surprising and perhaps even contradictory, but I think that what is asked of the Christian leader of the future is that he be a contemplative critic.
