Show Notes:
Psalm 78:4,7-8
We will not hide these truths from our children; we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord, about His power and His mighty wonders...so the next generation might know them—even the children not yet born—and they in turn will teach their own children. So each generation should set its hope anew on God, not forgetting His glorious miracles and obeying His commands.”
Jeremiah 6:1
This is what the LORD says: “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.”
For us right now looking back along the ancient paths to be able to point the future generations in the way to walk
To break it down-
We need to intentionally lead our children and others to the truth of God’s Word.
We need to intentionally show our children and others that they belong in God’s family.
We need to intentionally help our children and others discover God’s divine purpose for their lives.
To help us understand where we are at let’s take a look at where we currently sit with the this unique time in history when 6 VERY different Generations co-exist.
1. We are a dynamic generation.
2. We are a diverse generation.
[WHO IS GEN ALPHA]
Generation Alpha, born between 2010 and 2024, is growing up in a world vastly different from the one most of the older generations experienced.
They are the children of Millennials and are the first generation that we will see in record numbers in the 22nd century.
They are logged on and linked up, known as "digital natives."
