    Episode 158: Gen Alpha Is Already Asking Hard Questions — Is Your Ministry Ready with Irene Tucker

    In this episode I am joined by Irene Tucker, a staff and writer at Axis. Together we explore how parents, ministry leaders, and volunteers can better disciple the next generation by leaning into culture rather than shying away from it. We discuss the difference between Gen Z and Gen Alpha, why critical thinking and apologetics matter more than ever for young kids, and why the foundation of any meaningful spiritual conversation is relationship. Irene shares practical wisdom on how to engage kids through music, media, and everyday moments — and why showing up consistently in the small things matters far more than having all the right answers.
