This book is rich with good thinking, research, stories and ideas and I highly recommend it as a must read for all pastors and leaders, particularly if you are just beginning to think about what intergenerational christian formation could look like in your faith community.

Intergenerate is a book for any Christian leader reflecting on how to bring different generations back together again in worship, learning and service. This book is based on the papers, presentations and learning at the first Intergenerate Conference in 2017 and presents a wide variety of reflections on generational theory, biblical and theological insights and practical considerations for developing innovative approaches to ministry. You can read our review here. There have since been further conferences with more books in the series Engage All Generations; All Ages Becoming; Imagining All Generations. Any, or all of them are worth reading. The newest book (2025), Imagining All Generations by Wilson McCoy, contains a chapter written by CBOQ Pastor Rev. Dr. Amy Yu and specifically addresses intergenerational in a multilingual context.
A great resource to develop an understanding and get ideas for preaching for all ages has been written by Canadian David M. Csinos, Associate Professor of Practical Theology at Atlantic School of Theology You can read our review of this book here.
