The Gospel in Hard Times – Joni and Friends

This Bible Study Guide focuses on suffering and is geared specifically for teens.  Each well organized lesson provides reflection questions as well as a prayer focus and an action plan.  Additionally, throughout the study, real life situations are powerfully used.

Be Loved – Emma Mae Jenkins

This colorful, engaging book is designed specifically for pre-teen and teen girls.  Emma Mae Jenkins shares her high school years through the lens of her spiritual growth.  Of particular note is the inclusion of a scripture to remember section at the end of each chapter.  These well selected verses truly reaffirm the truths shared within the text.  Our middle school aged daughter was immediately interested in this book and continues to re-read it.

A Place for Pluto – Stef Wade

We loved A Place for Pluto!  This highly engaging book details Pluto’s shock and dismay when he is stripped of his planet status and his subsequent attempts to find where he might fit within the universe.  Scientifically sound, funny, and encouraging, A Place for Pluto is a winner.
