About Z8
The Z8 Initiative exists to awaken and empower the next generation to live boldly for Jesus, with one clear mission: Making Jesus Famous. Through Gospel-centered events, leadership development, and community, we unite students and young adults across denominational lines to encounter Christ in a real and relevant way. Our heart is to inspire young world changers to win, send, empower, and multiply others for the Kingdom.
Why Gen Z?
Generation Z is on track to become the largest living generation in American history. While often labeled as a “post-Christian” generation, we see them differently. They are world changers, making an eternal impact in their world. Z8 is on a mission to awaken these young people as world changers – to win, send, empower, and multiply them for Christ.
A study once said Generation Z has an eight-second attention span. At LifeLight we believe they have an eight-second filter. In a world full of noise, young people are constantly deciding what’s real and what’s worth their time. Z8 is our commitment to meet them in that moment – cutting through the noise with the clear truth of the Gospel. Because when they encounter what’s real, they respond.

What We Do
Z8 brings unity and community among GenerationZ, schools, churches, and organizations to proclaim to Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Vision Statement
