“Yes, reading can aid young men. It can steady them. It can orient them toward what is meaningful,” writes @Luke_Simon7.

But it “cannot fix men.”

Gen Z men are not wrong to believe in a contested world, writes @Luke_Simon7.

But they’ve misidentified the villain.

Our reckoning with purity culture is “good and necessary,” writes @Luke_Simon7.

“But I fear that in the process of tearing down purity culture, we may have kissed purity itself goodbye. And that’s a problem.”

We don’t need pledges or rose metaphors. We do need more reverence and restraint.

“Some of the manosphere messages are good…A world where more men took responsibility for what’s within reach—their bodies, their work, their families—would be a better one.

But the gospel of the manosphere is still incomplete.”

Young men are right to want agency, clarity, and strength. But grit alone cannot carry them.

Charlie Kirk didn’t hedge or soften his positions to broaden appeal; he underlined them.

That’s why he landed with Gen Z men, argues Luke Simon.

Why were young men like me drawn to Charlie Kirk? Because he didn't hedge or soften his positions to broaden appeal; he underlined them.

@RevBCD @CTmagazine Brad, I’m so glad to hear you overcame that addiction! I pray that God uses your story to help others caught in similar circumstances and to further his Kingdom.

The nicotine pouch is popular with Gen Z men like me. That’s a problem for not just our bodies but also our souls.

This is an insightful look from @Luke_Simon7 at the gender divide in debates and discussions on worship.

A caveat: by numbers not stories, the traffic still tilts (women AND men) toward the more charismatic expressive traditions, not the liturgical.

The worship wars of the next generation may be defined by gender (and gendered interests) more than theology or taste. @Luke_Simon7 offers a fascinating perspective on when Gen Z men & women are going to different churches on @CTmagazine: https://t.co/Z8BSgaMY8D

Gen Z is among the least churched generations in America, but zoomers who are in the church are quietly steering its worship in two directions at once, writes @Luke_Simon7.

My newest piece @CTmagazine

Gen Z is quietly reshaping church worship—young men gravitating toward tradition and liturgy, young women toward CCM—revealing a growing gender divide shaped by algorithms, values, and spiritual expression.
