  • Dr. Jeff Myers on the Battle for the Soul of Generation Z
    2025/10/02

    Here is a bold statement that is hard to comprehend and believe. Generation Z is being shaped more by TikTok than by Biblical truth. 


    This begs the question, who exactly are today’s young adults and how do we reach them? A simple Google search of Gen Z pops up 1.3 billion hits in just a fraction of a second. However, there is very little clarity on what this young people group actually thinks, feels, and believes.


    To better understand who these current 13- to 28-year-olds are, Summit Ministries, recognized as a leader in cultural engagement, has released a brand-new 40-page white paper resource called, “State of the Rising Generation Report”. Designed for parents, teachers, and pastors, this free report distills thousands of pages of research, expert interviews, and student groups into a clear, and easy to understand format.


    Among the report’s key findings:

    - The Identity Crisis: 58% of young adults say they have no clear direction in life.

    - Mental Health Struggles: 72% of young women and 67% of young men say anxiety and depression are part of who they are.

    - Smartphone vs. AI Generation: If Gen Z is the “smartphone generation,” Gen Alpha is the first “AI generation,” with profound implications for learning and relationships.


    - Faith Deconstruction: While church attendance is declining, 90% of young adults express some form of spiritual belief, signaling fresh opportunities for engagement.


    - Relationships in Crisis: From pornography to loneliness, isolation to family breakdown, technology and culture are reshaping how young adults view marriage, friendship and community.

    Dr. Jeff Myers is one of America’s most respected voices on youth development and worldview. The author of 18 books, he is a frequent commentator on cultural confusion, moral clarity, and generational discipleship. It is his desire to equip parents and leaders with truth and context so they can spend more time connecting with the ones they love, all while guiding Generation Z to fulfill their God-given potential.


    Dr. Myers joins me to chat about how the role of technology is quickly shaping Generation Z's worldview. Listen as he shares why it is so vitally important to address today's cultural and political confusion with a strong Biblical viewpoint, one that is clear and relatable to today's young adults.

  • Author Karl Clauson on Conquering the One Thing That is Defeating You: Sin
    2025/09/18

    Sin. S-I-N. It’s a simple three letter word. But unfortunately, it often serves at the root for everything that is negative in our lives.

    In what can only be described as a conscious transgression against God’s will and our established moral standards, sin finds its way into our well-intentioned lives through lust, lying, hatred, and even jealousy.

    Here are but a few tangible examples of how sin can permeate our souls without even realizing it:

    - Hatred toward people who “deserve” it.
    - Apathy toward God or those around us.
    - Oversensitivity to what others say or think of you.
    - Thinking you have more knowledge, are better looking, and more superior than anyone else around you.
    - Following rules is more important than loving others.

    Author Karl Clauson believes that sin is literally killing us. Most would agree that sin doesn’t lead to anything productive in our lives. But how can we take hold of God’s promises and walk in freedom – not just a temporary fix but as a sustained, lasting victory?

    In his latest book, “Killing Sin: Conquer the One Thing That is Defeating You”, Clauson outlines behavioral habits that hold us back, an understanding of how we can change, and key strategies for winning the war against sin that are grounded in Scripture.

    Simply put, sin separates us from God. And the Moody Radio host shows you how to successfully fight temptation and overcome the sin in your life.

    Clauson joins me to chat about why so many people struggle to overcome bad habits or sin in their life. Listen as he shares the difference between recognizing our sin, owning our sin, and what we can do about it to live more fulfilling lives.

  • Pastor Allen Jackson on Angelic and Demonic Influences That Shape Our Lives and What We Can Do About It
    2025/09/04

    Spiritual beings exist, and they impact our world far more than politicians, governments, and other authorities. They also directly influence our thoughts, emotions, and actions.

    Allen Jackson is no stranger to the impact that unseen spiritual influences can have in our lives. As the pastor of a Nashville area church with more than 15,000 members, Jackson has made it his mission to help people become more fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. Paramount to that cause is his desire to provide keen theological insight on unexplainable spiritual forces in our lives.

    In his latest book, “Angels, Demons, and You”, Jackson explores what the Bible has to say about angels, demons, and their roles on the earth and in our lives. In doing so, he provides valuable insight, practical tools, and Biblical truths to help us recognize the spiritual battle around us and how to stand firm in our faith.

    Jackson joins me to chat about why spiritual warfare is so relevant in today's world. Listen as he shares key signs that someone may be experiencing angelic or demonic activity and what we can do about it.
