Abstract

The advancement of digital technology has transformed the lifestyles of Generation Z students, impacting their psychological, social, and spiritual well-being. While technology facilitates easy access to information and communication, it also presents challenges such as anxiety, stress, identity crises, and low mental resilience. This article aims to examine the development of a Christian guidance and counseling model grounded in digital spirituality as an alternative approach to enhancing the mental resilience of Generation Z students. The study employs a qualitative method based on a literature review, analyzing relevant books and scholarly articles. The findings indicate that integrating Christian spiritual values ​​with digital technology can yield guidance and counseling services that are contextual, adaptive, and focused on character formation, faith strengthening, emotional regulation, and the enhancement of student adaptability. Furthermore, this model fosters collaboration among schools, families, and churches to support the holistic development of students. Thus, a Christian guidance and counseling model based on digital spirituality holds the potential to be an effective service model for building student mental resilience in the digital era.
