Gen Z

"They're depressed and anxious and have been discipled, so to speak, by social media and phones and all that," he said Tuesday during the panel discussion about the Asbury outpouring at the Evangelical Press Association's convention in Lexington, Ky. "But that doesn't mean they are not hungry for something that's good and right and true and real."

One notable finding is that 54 percent of Generation Z, the youngest group of American adults born in 1997 or later, said the Bible transformed their lives, an increase from 50 percent in 2023.

According to a recent survey, an increased percentage of young women have left their churches and identify as religiously unaffiliated.

In the face of Gen Z’s mental health crisis, it is the Gospel and not gloom that should motivate and inform us.

When our lives are stripped of tangible connections with our neighbors, our neighborhoods, and our families, we lose sight of many things that matter. 

The founder of the global prayer and worship movement, Upperroom, acknowledged an increase in GenZers who want the presence of God.
