Millennial Faith

In this episode, the hosts discuss the generational challenges faced by millennials and Gen Z in the church. They explore the transition from strict, uncommunicative upbringing methods to a more compassionate, explanatory, and intentional parenting style. The conversation delves into past church practices, the impact of internet and information overload, cultural shifts towards deconstruction, and the importance of authenticity and intentional relationships. They call for a reevaluation of how faith is taught and lived, emphasizing the importance of apologizing to children and ensuring that faith is a guide through vulnerable, real-life experiences. The hosts invite open dialogue and offer support for those hurt by the church or struggling with their faith.   00:00 Nostalgic Beginnings: Favourite Childhood Movies 02:09 Disney Channel Memories and Growing Up 02:42 Life in an RV and Disney Channel Shows 05:26 Millennial TV Shows and Christian Upbringing 14:56 The Impact of Internet and Information Overload 24:10 The Church's Struggle with Millennial Disillusionment 28:14 Aligning with God's Will 29:00 Generational Values in the Church 29:45 Consumer Christianity and Authenticity 31:03 Belief vs. Discipleship 32:52 Deconstruction and Its Challenges 39:36 The Importance of Apology in Faith 58:07 Teaching Children About Faith 01:04:07 Concluding Thoughts and Encouragement
