Book Description

"I want a way to live that keeps me involved in what God is doing in me and in the world around me. Do you know a way to live that is like that?" - Martha, 15

Eighteen teens and 18 adults tackle that question in Way to Live: Christian Practices for Teens. Their different points of view and personal stories make living a Christian life REAL. Find out how Alexx dealt with all his stuff, how Marie expressed her creativity with a paint roller, what Jack learned about play. These are just a few of the Christian practices this team of writers explores. Some ancient Christian practices turn up as ways to deepen awareness of God's present in our lives today: Discover how to use your imagination when reading the Bible - à la Saint Ignatius - and practice tuning in to God like Brother Lawrence of the 17th century. This book will start teens on the journey of a lifetime. Find even more stories and conversations plus a Leader's Guide at www.waytolive.org, a website for youth and youth leaders.
