If you’re new: welcome.
I’m Dr. Clay “Dr. Rockmore” Stidham. I teach Gen Z and Gen Alpha every day, and I build tools that help them think, learn, and steady themselves in a noisy world. That’s why there’s a bold Z in ViZionary HoriZons, LLC—this work is designed for the students in front of me, and for the parents trying to help them.
If you’re Gen X or Millennial, you’re in the right place too—especially if you feel like you missed the humanities on the first pass and want a smarter way back into history, culture, faith, and meaning without the performative outrage.
And if you’re a Boomer reader coming in through Reframing Christianity, you’re not a side audience. You’re a pillar of the conversation. That’s the lane where I write more explicitly about Scripture, theology, and discipleship—without mixing streams. Dr Rockmore

What I publish here tends to land in three buckets.
First, practical thinking tools you can actually use—especially for students and families who feel overwhelmed, behind, distracted, or stuck.
Second, clear explanations of what’s happening to attention, motivation, learning, and identity in the Z/Alpha era—without blaming kids for the environment they inherited.
Third, longer essays that rebuild first principles in culture, history, and faith—written to reduce heat and increase clarity.
Start with these three:
