Whether you're a parent, a youth pastor, a teacher or a young person yourself, you've probably seen all of the headlines concerning Gen Z. Rates of depression and loneliness are surging, their relationship with technology is kind of troubling, and they are leaving the church in droves. We've talked about these trends a lot on the Holy Post, but we're not alone. Tenx10 is a new collaborative discipleship initiative whose mission is to make faith matter more for this younger generation. We've partnered with Tenx10 to create this series and to hear from experts in each episode about the challenges young people and those who care about them are facing. One of those experts is Felicia Song,  a professor of Sociology at Westmont who studies the place of digital technologies in contemporary life. She regularly speaks on digital practices, social media, the digital media industry, parenting in the digital age, and spiritual formation at universities and colleges, churches, schools, parent groups, and conferences. Kaitlyn Schiess sat down with Felicia to find out if the kids are going to be alright. 0:00 - Theme Song   0:18 - Intro   1:32 - Digital Natives   13:46 - Managing our Tech Addictions 32:51 - Tenx10 Info - Go to tenx10.org for resources on how to help the younger generation care more about faith   34:02 - Debrief    48:48 - End Credits Links and Resources   Tenx10 - https://www.tenx10.org/   Restless Devices: Recovering Personhood, Presence, and Place in the Digital Age by Felicia Wu Song - https://amzn.to/3QVahyo Holy Post website: https://www.holypost.com/   Holy Post Plus: www.holypost.com/plus   Holy Post Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/holypost   Holy Post Merch Store: https://www.holypost.com/shop The Holy Post is supported by our listeners.
