Today, We're joined by Charessa Koontz, a seasoned director of Christian education, who reveals her fervent prayers for reformation. Charessa dives into the essence of our baptismal identity and the significance of communal bonds, urging a reconnection with God's work in our lives. We discuss the mental health crisis among Gen Z and Gen Alpha, exploring how social media pressures and the advent of the self-facing camera have contributed to rising anxiety and depression.
Struggling to pass down faith in an increasingly fractured world? Charessa offers profound insights into generational discipleship, emphasizing the critical role of storytelling and mentorship. We unravel the concept of God as a father and how our perceptions of divinity are molded by life’s wisdom and experiences. The lack of guidance in faith transmission today is a pressing issue, and Charessa passionately advocates for relational and incarnational discipleship where parents and mentors model faith, ensuring that discipleship is a dynamic process of learning and teaching.
How can churches better support families and address the pressing issues of our time? Charessa sheds light on practical strategies for churches to tackle mental health challenges, from seminars for parents to creating supportive environments. We discuss contemporary topics such as screen time and human sexuality, stressing the need for open dialogue within church settings. The episode wraps up with a look at the emotional and spiritual complexities pastors face in multigenerational congregations, highlighting the importance of authenticity and vulnerability in leadership. Join us for a conversation that is as enlightening as it is essential for our times.
