Crossway Books (Verlag)
978-1-4335-7166-4 (ISBN)
How can we believe the Bible is true? Why can’t we just agree that love is love? Isn’t Christianity against diversity?
Going to school, hanging out with friends, or scrolling through social media feeds, teenagers are sure to face real challenges to faith in Jesus Christ. And whether you consider yourself a Christ follower or not, these questions can seem like deal breakers.
Backed by state-of-the-art research, personal stories, Harry Potter illustrations (warning: spoilers!), and careful biblical study, this book doesn’t dodge tough questions. Instead, it invites teenagers to ask their hardest questions about Christianity and to find surprising, life-giving answers.
Written by Rebecca McLaughlin, author of Confronting Christianity, which was named Christianity Today’s 2020 Beautiful Orthodoxy Book of the Year and named winner of the Gospel Coalition 2019 Book Award for Evangelism and Apologetics
Addresses 10 important questions that teens often face regarding modern science, sexuality, gender, diversity, and more
Features teen-friendly illustrations from popular culture, such as Harry Potter; The Lord of the Rings; Aladdin; and more
