We live in a world that moves at the speed of a swipe. Every day, Gen Z and young adults are bombarded with digital content designed to capture attention—but rarely to cultivate spiritual depth. So what does effective ministry look like in a culture driven by distraction, algorithms, and short attention spans?

In this episode of Passing the Pulpit, we sit down with Next Gen Pastor Cory Kasperson to explore what it means to lead, disciple, and build authentic community in the digital age. Drawing from years of youth and young adult ministry experience, Cory shares practical insights on digital discipleship, creating meaningful spiritual experiences, and helping young people move from consuming faith to truly living it. If you’re passionate about reaching the next generation, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to pursue depth—not dopamine—in your ministry.
