The episode reflects on concerns about the perceived shortcomings of the younger generation—laziness, entitlement, and lack of respect—and challenges the older generation to take responsibility for how those traits may have developed. It argues that if younger people lack values, it may be because they were never properly taught, disciplined, or shown a consistent example of righteous living. Biblical references emphasize that teaching and modeling godly behavior is a multi-generational responsibility, not only for parents but also for the broader community.

Matthew 28:18-20 speak to making disciples. Jesus said in Luke 9:23 that to be a disciple we are to take up the Cross daily denying self.

Are you a God chaser(seeker)? The journey of knowing Christ does not end with your salvation from the penalty of sin. We are called to walk with Christ, to chase after Him.
