Gen Z, born into a complex and rapidly changing world, carries unique questions about life and God. Church methodologies that worked for previous generations often miss their mark with this one.

In What Gen Z Really Wants to Know About God, veteran youth worker and Gen Z expert Tanita Tualla Maddox presents a thoughtful and powerful guide for ministry practitioners striving to connect with this generation. Based on years of research and practical experience, Maddox's book provides insights into the seven key questions Gen Z is asking about life and faith, offering actionable advice tailored to their values and worldview.

This book goes beyond just answering questions--it explores how to translate the unchanging truths of the gospel into Gen Z's cultural context. Through reflective wisdom and practical tools, Maddox equips ministry leaders to meet Gen Z where they are and disciple them toward a vibrant, sustainable faith.

This book is designed not only to answer questions but also to equip ministry leaders to apply its insights across various ministry settings, making it an essential resource for youth pastors, campus ministry leaders, seminary students, and even parents.
