You Matter More Than You Think | Why the Next Generation Needs You | Pastor Ryan Spaulding

*You Matter More Than You Think | Why the Next Generation Needs You* You don't have to be a parent to shape the next generation. If you know a young person's name, you have the opportunity to influence their life. In this special Rhythm Student Takeover message, we explore why every adult has a God-given role in leading the next generation. Looking at the unique challenges facing Generation Alpha—from growing up as digital natives to navigating anxiety, loneliness, and an AI-driven world—we discover that what they need most isn't more information. They need caring adults who offer both *presence* and **direction**. Through **1 Chronicles 28**, **Deuteronomy 6**, and **Esther 4**, this message reminds us that God has uniquely positioned parents, mentors, grandparents, leaders, and the church to help raise a generation that knows and follows Him. No matter your season of life, *you were made for this—and so were they.* 📖 Scriptures: • 1 Chronicles 28:9–10 • Deuteronomy 6:4–7 • Esther 4:14 💬 We'd love to hear from you!
