LARRAPY Convos – Blog 99: Preparing the Next Generation to Stand in Truth

Introduction:

The next generation faces unprecedented confusion, pressure, and deception. Preparing them to stand requires more than slogans — it requires deeply rooted faith, critical thinking, emotional resilience, and spiritual boldness.

In False Gods Among Us, I teach how to raise truth-bearers in a time of cultural chaos.

Main Points:

• Teach Critical Thinking Early: Equip them to discern lies from truth.

• Model Courage, Not Just Words: Live what you preach.

• Give Emotional Security: Strong hearts withstand external storms.

• Plant Deep Biblical Roots: Shallow faith won't survive cultural storms.

• Encourage Healthy Doubts: Safe questioning strengthens true belief.

Practical Tips for Preparing the Next Generation:

• Normalize faith conversations at home.

• Encourage apologetics and worldview studies early.

• Build emotional literacy and resilience.

• Pray daily over their identity and destiny.

🧠 Mental Health Commentary:

Young people equipped with emotional resilience, critical thinking, and stable identity have lower risks of depression, anxiety, and identity crises — essential for future flourishing.

✝️ Spiritual Commentary:

Proverbs 22:6 reminds us to "train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."

🌍 Cultural Commentary:

Culture aggressively disciples youth toward self-worship, relativism, and nihilism. Preparing them for truth requires proactive, passionate investment — not passive hope.

Conclusion:

Prepare warriors, not wanderers. The next generation is worth the intentional sacrifice.
