According to research, increasing religious awareness among Generation Z can be achieved by forming a personal relationship with God, creating a supportive environment, and wisely handling the influence of technology. Strengthening the personal relationship with God is crucial for parents, educators, and religious leaders to assist Generation Z in building a personal connection with God.
