About this episode

Ameen and KB discuss the Church's role in addressing the spiritual needs of Gen Z with guest Frank Gil.

Southside Tribe! In this episode, Ameen and KB are joined by longtime friend and ministry leader Frank Gil for a deep and timely conversation about Gen Z, student ministry, and the Church’s responsibility in a spiritually hungry moment. From the privilege and purpose of youth ministry to Gen Z’s longing for sacred practices, authenticity, and transcendence, this episode challenges the Church to move beyond gimmicks and comfort toward real discipleship. It’s an honest call to steward this moment well—before a generation searching for the real Jesus finds everything else but Him. Come thru!
