$12.99Add to cartSo many young Christians fall away, often struggling even to believe in God. Why? How can they, with encouragement, find a way to meet Christ and keep journeying with Him?
Getting through the tough stuff. You see a friend suffer. Leaders and churches let you down. Your prayers fall flat. Maybe your dad died. How do you have faith through these things? Gavin and Anne have faced their own challenges. They struggled to conceive – and then their second child needed thirteen blood transfusions. Every day their work brings them into contact with hurting young people. They don’t have all the answers, but they demonstrate that it is possible to meet the questions head-on and go on growing.

Lazy Antisocial And Selfish
$13.99Add to cart12 portraits of young people who are out to make a difference
There is a widespread myth that young people are feckless and irresponsible. To contradict this, Gavin and Simeon present twelve groups of real young people, and the adults who helped to form, nurture and develop them. Their book explores how these groups began, grew, experienced the presence of God, and acted to change their communities in Jesus’ name. It will encourage readers to see young people as exciting, challenging, vibrant and potential revolutionaries. It will challenge young readers to emulate the true-life stories within the book, and take steps to revolutionise their churches, schools and communities. It will also show that to be a ‘youth leader’, it is not necessary to be a spiritual giant, but simply a faithful servant of God.
