He then complexifies common notions about nones by demonstrating how there are many different kinds of people who are \u201cspiritual, but not religious.\u201d In 21st century America, people are more oriented toward continual seeking for the divine. Longwood argues that to engage this new generation, churches could provide a space for spiritual seekers to explore, rather than trying to provide all the answers.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/learn.elca.org\/jle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Journal_of_Lutheran_Ethics_Logo.jpg","thumbnail_width":250,"thumbnail_height":250}
