So much has changed in the last decade for kids. For most of us, the life that we knew as teens is completely foreign compared to what our teens are facing today. With the introduction of social media, new technology, and changing social pressures, we as parents need all the help we can get!
Introducing Axis!
Axis is a team of Gospel-focused researchers creating culturally relevant guides, videos, and audios that equip parents of teens to have deep conversations about faith. This month, the Axis series will be released through Tyndale with 10+ guides focusing on topics ranging from TikTok to Eating Disorders. These books are so helpful in wading through the weeds of today’s emerging culture.
To learn more about Axis and their resources, check out this podcast with Evan Barber of Axis about navigating conversations with teens, specifically Gen Z about worldview and pop culture!
