Hope For An Anxious Generation

About this series

We’re living in a world shaped by screens—always on, always connected, always pulling at our attention. And at the same time, anxiety is rising across every generation. Hope for an Anxious Generation is a six-week journey into how life in a digital age is forming us—and how the way of Jesus offers a wiser, more grounded way to live within it. Together, we’ll explore simple practices that help us relate differently to our phones, our stress, our relationships, and our pace of life. This isn’t about rejecting technology. It’s about learning how to live human, faithful lives in the middle of it.

About this message

So many of us feel the weight of stress in ways we don’t always talk about, and it can be hard to know what to do with it. This week, Pastor Scotty reflects on the opening words of the book of James, inviting us to consider how moments of pressure might shape us rather than simply wear us down.

 

The message explores how our digital habits, our assumptions about struggle, and the stories we tell ourselves can all pull us into defense mode—or open us to a different kind of strength. If you’ve been walking through a season that feels heavy, this message offers a thoughtful, hopeful way to approach it.
