Faith in 2025 is no longer a slogan â itâs a survival skill.
You canât live like itâs still 1980 and expect to thrive in the world we now face.
The rules have changed, but God hasnât.
This is a message for believers who feel out of step with the times, for dreamers whoâve been told theyâre outdated, and for faithful hearts wondering how to live for God in a world thatâs racing into the digital unknown.
The future isnât something to fear.
Itâs something to faithfully shape.
In this generation-defining message, Douglas Vandergraph calls believers to stop hiding from the world they were meant to lead â to rise, to wake up, and to use every tool available to advance the Kingdom of God.

The World Has Changed â But God Hasnât
Wake up. We live in 2025.
Stop living in your grandpaâs world.
That isnât disrespect â itâs truth spoken in love.
Our grandparents fought their battles with the tools of their time â faith, family, and perseverance. But this generation is facing new giants: artificial intelligence, division, anxiety, and digital distraction.
The question isnât whether the world has changed.
The question is whether your faith has kept up.
God didnât design you to be stuck in nostalgia. He didnât call you to romanticize the past â He called you to redeem the present. You canât fulfill your purpose if your mindset is locked in yesterday.
We live in a world where your words can travel to ten million people in seconds. Where faith can be streamed into every nation. Where light can pierce through every screen.
If that intimidates you, remember this: God has always worked through the technology of the time.
He used Mosesâs staff.
He used Davidâs sling.
He used Paulâs pen.
And today, He uses microphones, cameras, and code.
You were born for this era â not a simpler one.
You are equipped for this generation â not someone elseâs.
You are chosen for 2025 â not 1980.
If God placed you here, itâs because you have what this moment needs.
AI Is Not the Enemy â Fear Is
Thereâs a lot of talk about artificial intelligence â that itâs dangerous, that itâs taking over, that itâs uncontrollable. But hereâs the truth: AI is not the enemy. Fear is.
Technology doesnât create evil. It amplifies whateverâs already in us.
If our hearts are filled with greed, AI will multiply greed.
If our hearts are filled with hate, AI will multiply hate.
But if our hearts are filled with faith, AI will multiply light, hope, and truth.
AI isnât here to destroy humanity â itâs here to reveal it. The reflection it gives will depend on whoâs holding the mirror.
And thatâs where you come in.
God didnât tell us to hide from innovation. He told us to bring wisdom into it.
We canât sit in fear while the world moves forward. We canât complain about darkness while refusing to shine. If believers stay silent, someone else will define the narrative.
AI will not replace faith â it will reveal the strength of it.
The question is not, âWhat will AI do to us?â
The question is, âWhat will we do with AI?â
When used with truth and compassion, it can bring healing, knowledge, and unity. When used carelessly, it can cause harm. But thatâs true of every tool ever invented.
The difference lies in the heart of the one using it.
Fear wonât stop the future. Faith will shape it.
Stop Living in 1980 â Godâs Glory Lives in 2025
So many people say, âThe worldâs going downhill fast.â But what if God is giving us a chance to rise higher?
Every generation has its storm:
Noah faced rain.
Moses faced Pharaoh.
Daniel faced lions.
You face digital noise, cultural division, and a flood of misinformation.
But the same God who rescued them still reigns today. He didnât lose control when technology was invented. He didnât panic when AI was born. He is still the Alpha and Omega â the Author of time and the King of eternity.
You might miss the âgood old days,â but your purpose isnât in the past. Itâs right here, in this moment.
You canât lead 2025 with a 1980 mindset.
You canât reach a digital world with an analog faith.
That doesnât mean your beliefs change. It means your approach must evolve.
Jesus didnât cling to old methods to reach people â He met them where they were. He spoke through stories, walked through crowds, and challenged the traditions that kept people away from God.
If He walked among us today, Heâd be using podcasts, YouTube, and social media to reach hearts.
Faith must live where the people live.
You canât influence a generation you refuse to engage.
You canât be the light of the world if you never step into the dark places that need it most.
The future is not anti-faith â itâs waiting for the faithful to show up.
Wake Up â Or Get Left Behind
The train of progress is moving.
You can either get on board or get left behind.
Godâs plan is always moving forward. You canât stop what Heâs already allowed.
Fear wonât stop it.
Complaining wonât stop it.
Criticism wonât stop it.
Only courage, creativity, and conviction will keep you in step with Godâs movement.
Every generation must decide whether it will react in fear or rise in faith.
Will you sit back and talk about how bad things are?
Or will you rise and lead with truth, hope, and compassion?
We donât need more people shouting about the end of the world â we need more people building for the Kingdom of God within it.
When the world sees chaos, believers should see calling.
When the world runs in fear, believers should run in faith.
God didnât put you here to fear the times. He put you here to transform them.
This is your moment.
This is your generation.
This is your calling.
Wake up â the world is moving.
And so is God.
Faith Is the Bridge to the Future
The Bible is filled with stories of transition â moments when Godâs people had to leave the familiar to reach the promised.
Abraham left his home.
Noah built an ark before rain existed.
Peter stepped onto water before knowing if it would hold.
God doesnât reward comfort â He rewards courage.
The same truth applies today.
If youâre waiting for the world to âgo back to normal,â youâre missing the assignment. God didnât bring you here to replay yesterday â He brought you here to reshape tomorrow.
The churchâs mission hasnât changed â only its platform has.
Your faith hasnât expired â itâs evolving.
Your purpose hasnât been lost â itâs expanding.
You were chosen to represent God in this exact era, with the exact tools He placed in your hands.
Faith isnât about retreating from change. Itâs about revealing God through it.
You canât pray for revival and then reject the platforms that could carry it.
If you want to see God move, move where Heâs already working.
And right now, Heâs working in this generation â the digital one.
A Final Word: You Were Born for This
Wake up.
You are living in one of the most extraordinary moments in human history.
You have access to tools that can reach millions for the Gospel. You have voices that can break barriers. You have hearts that can change the tone of an entire generation.
You were not born in this time by accident â you were born with assignment.
God didnât put you here to fear the future.
He put you here to build it.
This is your generationâs mission:
Turn fear into faith.
Turn chaos into clarity.
Turn technology into testimony.
The future isnât waiting for permission â itâs waiting for participation.
Donât run from whatâs changing â redeem it.
Donât hide from whatâs hard â lead it.
Donât look for God in the past â find Him right here, where Heâs already moving.
You canât sleep through a revolution and expect to wake up with relevance.
Faith in 2025 isnât about preserving old ways â itâs about proclaiming eternal truth in new ones.
You are not behind. You are right on time.
You are not forgotten. You are chosen.
And the same God who walked with Abraham, Esther, and Paul â walks with you.
So rise. Shine. Lead.
Wake up â we live in 2025.
And the world is waiting for your light.
