In this episode of The Forum at Frazer, host Will Adams, Minister of Story, sits down with a group of young staff members and interns, including Levi McNeil, Jordan Phillips, Genesis Vanderhorst, and Logan Jeffcoat, to explore what genuine connection looks like for Gen Z, both inside and outside the church. The conversation moves from the nature of authentic relationships to the role of technology, intergenerational discipleship, and what the church can do better to bring generations together.
- What genuine connection means to Gen Z, including the role of shared suffering and sacrifice
- How relationships with other believers strengthen personal faith and connection to God
- What makes Frazer Church's community distinct, especially among large churches
- How technology and smartphones shape the way Gen Z connects, and why they are more aware of the problem than older generations assume
- The generational pattern of blaming new media, from television to TikTok
- Practical advice for parents navigating when and how to introduce phones to their children
- Why intergenerational mentorship benefits both the young and the old
- How the church can break down generational barriers and foster real discipleship across age groups
