How Churches Can Reach Gen Z

Listen Later

Gen Z could represent the first generation to return to church after decades of declining attendance. Thom and Jess look at four areas where local churches can connect with Gen Z in positive ways:

    1. Understand how different they are from previous generations.
    2. Focus on those ministries that help Gen Z form in-person community.
    3. Don’t compromise on biblical truths.
    4. Stress the importance of church involvement to the parents of Gen Z.
