especially, in the church. As a "digital native" generation rises into leadership and looks for discipleship

shapes the way we think and communicate, and how our brains operate in this new world, will change
the way you disciple and lead.

lead effectively amid digital distraction, hyperconnectedness, and social media savvy.
