Young Christians give away the largest proportion of their income than any other age group. God is calling Gen Z to a lifestyle of radical holiness and obedience, says Josh Green. It’s good news for the future of the Church
Recently, I was preparing a presentation for the new ministry that my wife and I have set up. We launched Gen Zeal to contend for revival in the next generations. We long to see the young leading the young in holy passion, fervent prayer and bold proclamation, to see a shift in the negative statistics around Church decline, particularly among their age group.
Having worked in ministry for nearly 20 years, I’m no stranger to presentations like these. They typically begin by addressing the need: a common one being the decline in church engagement among young people. Honestly, this section is usually filled with bleak statistics.
