Who do your students really believe Jesus is? In a culture filled with half-truths, memes, and mixed theology, even well-meaning young people can end up following a version of Jesus that doesn’t actually exist. In this episode, Shane Pruitt brings a timely and passionate conversation about rediscovering the real Jesus -the one revealed in Scripture, not reshaped by culture.

If you’re leading Gen Z or Gen Alpha, this conversation will help you cut through cultural noise, clarify biblical truth, and point the next generation to the Savior who transforms everything.

Shane and Chuck unpack the most common misconceptions about Jesus in today’s culture — from the “Clay Jesus” we mold to fit our preferences to the “Genie Jesus” we expect to grant wishes, along with the myth that "good people go to heaven". That dive into how young people form their view, and practical ways to teach the enxt generation to follow the REAL Jesus!

Share this episode with your team or teaching leaders, and start a conversation about how your ministry is presenting Jesus to the next generation. Let’s lead them to the Jesus who saves, not the one culture sells.
