Recently there have been stats that have come out that Generation Z is the loneliness generation. Why is that? It is in part because of social media.
Jeff Reed recently did a blog post about this and this post was the basis of a conversation Jeanette Yates and I had. We both have teens and work in Churches. So we process Jeff’s post and Jeanette shares 5 tips to help Students deal with social media – the cons of it and also ways to use it as an evangelism tool.
