From the publisher

Do you want to live for Jesus but struggle with what that means day by day? The deep desire of our hearts to be close to God is so easily sidetracked by daily realities. This book is designed to cover the areas of faith and life that you most want to bring together under God's leadership:

  • decision-making
  • dating and relationships
  • racial reconciliation
  • suffering
  • experiencing God
  • loving your parents
  • emotional healing
  • time management
  • everyday evangelism
  • hope for times of failure

Following Jesus is a wild and wonderful journey. It is perhaps the riskiest choice you will ever make. And the most rewarding. Come and see.
