10 Questions Every Teen Should Ask (and Answer) about Christianity

This new version of her first book is a welcome addition to my bookshelf! Some of these questions have been asked by young people for years, and others are ones that are only starting to be really culturally relevant. The author’s style is easy to read for teens and it delicately deals with a number of big issues, without skirting around what the Bible has to say. I particularly like the first chapter which is written to parents/grandparents (etc.) who have bought the book for a teenager so that you know what to expect and how to support your teen as they read it. Would really recommend this book for those who are wrestling with some of the big questions, and for those who are only just beginning their journey of faith and who want to see what God has to say to some of the biggest issues in the world today.
