As teens grapple with life’s difficult challenges, many want to look to God for answers, but don’t know how. This comprehensive, teen-friendly source will encourage, enlighten and point them toward their loving Heavenly Father.

A Teen’s Guide to Christian Living takes a biblical look at real faith in a real God and how it sustains the younger believer through the ups and downs of life. Whether you are a teenager dealing with the pain and fear of divorced parents, broken or abusive relationships, serious illness, life-changing choices or simply with the pressures of everyday living, you will find in these pages comfort, encouragement, direction and an anchor to keep you on solid ground. A special section of stories written by teens will encourage, inspire and strengthen teen readers.


"No matter how much exposure young people get to the Word of God, they are likely to be confused about what it really means in their lives. This book will give them the answers they need and, moreover, will help them to gain a personal relationship with Christ. I assure you every teen in my life will be getting a copy of A Teen’s Guide to Christian Living."

This book will take their faith to another level, helping them to see and know god as their Father, Healer, Guide, Provider, Teacher, Friend, Comforter Helper, Protector, Shepherd and Deliverer."
