Meeting Gen Z Where They Are
SAN DIEGO, June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a world of overwhelming pressures and mixed messages it's clear that Gen Z is facing an unprecedented level of stress as they navigate life. Studies also suggest that this generation deals with higher rates of anxiety, depression, anger, and loneliness than other generations. The passage of life into adulthood has always been filled with questions, but in a generation that has grown up with mass amounts of information and influence at their fingertips this passage of time seems to be filled with more questions than answers.
Especially questions surrounding one's identity and purpose.
In a brand-new book, Dr. David Jeremiah is speaking to this generation by exploring biblical topics that can shed light on the issues plaguing the passage of life between teenager and adulthood. Through 12 life-changing passages of the Bible, Dr. Jeremiah walks readers through Scripture that can inspire a deeper faith or kick-start a walk with Christ.
"While it's important to understand God's Word, it's the application of it that changes lives. This book takes 12 familiar Bible verses and helps us make them a part of who we are. It will show you how to become a person defined by these 12 verses," said David Todd Jeremiah, the host of the Passages podcast and the eldest grandson of Dr. Jeremiah.
Designed to bridge the spiritual generation gap and share the hope of Christ, Passages: Change Your Life will reach Gen Z right where they are by helping answers some of their most pressing questions in life. Topics explored in the book include –
Purpose
Worth
Adversity
Loneliness
Anxiety
Identity
Prayer
In addition, the book contains thought provoking question, action steps and prayer prompts.
"The world today presents countless challenges, and we are constantly bombarded with conflicting values and messages. This generation needs an anchor, and we believe God's Word offers guidance, wisdom and hope. That is just the anchor we should all tie ourselves to," said Dr. Jeremiah.
For a generation that is desperately seeking truth and authenticity Passages: Change Your Life offers life-changing, biblical truth rooted in Christ. Learn more or get a copy of Passages: Change Your Life today.

Scientists scramble to stop savage, flesh-eating flies from invading U.S.
Packs of flesh-eating New World screwworms may soon swarm the United States, but Texas has a plan to stop them. The big picture: The life-threatening maggots that prey on the open wounds of mammals pose a massive risk to ranchers and farmers nationwide. The New World screwworm has been prevalent near the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean. The parasites are poised for a U.S. invasion, according to Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, but America has been working with Mexico to eradicate the bugs before they hit the country. Driving the news: The Texas Department of Agriculture announced last week it will deploy a synthetic bait called "Swormlure" to attract the flesh-eating flies with a scent similar to open wounds. The trap "will kill up to 90% of flies on contact," the state said. The Texas plan also includes a new feed additive for livestock and deer, as well as the development of a vaccine that can kill screwworm larvae. What they're saying: "When it comes to safeguarding Texas' $15 billion cattle industry, we need to focus on action rather than words," Texas Agriculture commissioner Sid Miller said in a statement. "Texas ranchers deserve better than outdated practices and bureaucratic complacency," he added. "We're taking real action with effective solutions to stop NWS in its tracks." What is a New World screwworm? Context: The New World screwworm can threaten cattle, livestock and, in rare cases, humans. How it works: The parasitic fly exploits open wounds to feed its spawn. Female flies can drop hundreds of eggs on wounds. The screw-shaped larvae will emerge, and then twist and dig into the victim before eating them alive and leaving a deadly lesion behind. What's next: Biologists and researchers reported in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases that the flies have been feasting on mountain tapirs, which were not previously known to be at risk. This might be a sign that the parasites' appetite is expanding, researchers said. U.S. plan to fight New World screwworm Flashback: The United States eradicated the flies decades ago. However, a recent surge in Panama signaled the flies might move north. The Trump administration announced plans to breed and sterilize billions of flies to airdrop over Mexico and southern Texas to weed out the maggot. The USDA has a five-point plan that will help detect, control and eliminate the pest. "The United States has defeated NWS before and we will do it again," Rollins said in a statement. "We do not take lightly the threat NWS poses to our livestock industry, our economy, and our food supply chain." Yes, but: Former officials have warned that the Trump administration's cuts to agricultural research could make it harder to eliminate the flies, according to the New York Times. "Screwworm's a pretty specialized thing, right?" Dr. Kevin Shea, a former administrator of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, told the New York Times. "Not too many people know about it or ever worked in it, and if you lose people who have that expertise, that's a big problem." Can New World Screwworms attack humans? Humans are at risk of Myiasis, an infestation of maggots in the human tissue caused by the screwworm, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. People who travel to South America and the Caribbean, where the parasites are typically located, are most at-risk. "You are at higher risk for NWS if you travel in these areas, are around livestock in rural areas where the flies are, and if you have an open wound," the CDC says. Symptoms of New World Screwworm infestation Zoom in: The CDC says that infestations are "very painful" where you see maggots around an open wound. " They could also be in your nose, eyes, or mouth," the CDC says. Other symptoms include skin lesions that don't heal, wounds that get worse over time, bleeding from open sources and feeling larvae move "within a skin wound or sore, nose, mouth, or eyes."
