"Bos and Sachs have given us a book that is timely, thought-provoking, and utterly engaging. Never before have I seen belonging and belief so beautifully described. Anyone who wants the church to become a true spiritual community where all are welcomed and faith flourishes needs to read this."—The Rev. Canon C. K. Robertson, PhD, Canon to the Presiding Bishop & Primate, The Episcopal Church“This is a superb book; it takes the sociological data about spirituality, believing, and modern life and explores the challenges and opportunities this data provides for a congregation. Underpinned by considerable learning, this is accessible, perceptive, and fascinating. Get your vestry to read this book.”—Ian Markham, Dean & President, Virginia Theological Seminary “In the tradition of Robert Bellah’s Sheila and Sheilaism, Sachs and Bos here give us Ashley and Ashleyism. The result is an insightful, well-documented, and narratively presented portrait of today’s young adults and of the spiritual and religious longings that drive them. All of this is accompanied by sharp-eyed and experienced analyses of both the limitations and possibilities of the congregations presently available to the Ashleys among us.”—Phyllis Tickle, Author, The Great Emergence: How Christianity is Changing and Why “This book speaks powerfully and imaginatively to our context and times. In an age when many describe themselves as ‘spiritual, but not religious’, Sachs and Bos offer us an accessible, wise and creative book that engages faithfully and richly with the cultures that Christians and congregations seek to reach and transform. Beautifully written, this is a well-crafted book that will enable all kinds of congregations to move forward more confidently with their ministries and outreach. I cannot commend it highly enough.”—Martyn PercyDean, Christ Church Oxford
