Reflections on The Anxious Generation: Concurrence and Questions

In this sermon I’ll discuss my thoughts and responses to social psychologist Jonathan Haidt’s latest book, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness. I believe it is an important book that is already having a positive and necessary impact, for which I am grateful. Yet, I also disagree with some of Haidt’s inferences. In this sermon, I’ll discuss both where I agree and disagree.
