Podcast with Garrett Bryant on Potential Revival Among Gen Z’ers
Topic: Faith Advances Among Youth.
Christian communicator Adam McManus writes: Between secularism and digital media overload, Gen Z is the “most anxious generation” in America.
Among 14 to 29-year-olds:
- 61% say loneliness affects their mental health.
- 36% report anxiety and 29% say they’re depressed.
- Over 50% say their life lacks purpose.
Loneliness is driven by more online interaction, less face-to-face connection, and weaker community structures like church.
Anxiety and depression is driven by constant comparison on social media, academic/career pressure, and uncertainty about the future.
And lack of purpose is driven by career uncertainty, financial stress, and global instability. But, thankfully, the 14 to 29-year-olds are turning to Christian faith as an antidote.” Garrett Bryant with Prayer at the Heart joins Jerry Newcombe to discuss Gen Z and Anxiety.
