In recent years, there has been a substantial decrease in the number of missionaries operating overseas and joining missions agencies. This decline has been attributed to changing cultural contexts in the United States and the advent of postmodernism and pluralism. Youth growing up in these contexts have differing views about missions and Christianity in general. The purpose of this research is to understand how younger generations view and understand missions, first, by a literature review, and second, by a survey sent out to undergraduate students at Houghton College. The literature review focuses on four major themes: the ambiguity in defining missions, the impact of historical missions, the effects of postmodernism, and the characteristics of Gen Z and Millenials. The survey received 124 responses and revealed that many students exhibit a greater affinity for holistic missions and a broader definition of missions than its traditional structure.
