He's probably around 10-13. Seemed to be Caucasian, telling me that he's a Christian who's trying to look for a good church, but his parents brought him to a black church and they weren't comfortable in it. He then asked me about science vs. faith and Trinity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few weeks later, an agnostic (adult Scottish?) had me telling him that you need faith even in science, using the classic sitting on a chair by faith example. He was also delighted to engage in and he shared an interesting Youtube video which I do like, on introductions to Christian denominations in 12 minutes, by Redeemed Zoomer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"All Christian denominations explained in 12 minutes\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tzLS4O7YaUg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I've since subscribed to Redeemed Zoomer's Youtube and this is his bio:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I am a Presbyterian <strong>seminary student<\/strong> training for ministry in the <strong>PCUSA<\/strong>, (Presbyterian Church USA) but I completely <strong>oppose the theological liberalism<\/strong> that has hijacked it.

I am a <strong>regular gen Z<\/strong> (zoomer) who was raised in a very secular progressive culture. I was once a leftist, but came to know Christ as a teenager which alienated me from my community.
