Summary/Abstract: This article aims to explore what Christian mission means in the age of the internet and to sound the alarm regarding Generation Z and how faith is perceived today. Furthermore, the multitude and diversity of messages transmitted via the internet, in an attempt at apparent “communion” and validation, seem to fill people’s lives, giving them a sense of self-sufficiency. Thus, those who remain connected and influenced by new technologies and the media experience an information overload that often exceeds their capacity to manage it.
