Product Description:
Every young reader will see himself; every young reader will see a way that she can learn from a story and touch another’s life. Overcoming sorrow, finding joy, dealing with addictions, realizing self-esteem, and, beyond that, self-respect, deflecting rejections, learning to encourage, and--best of all--finding God in surprising, hidden, and unbelievable places. This is what readers will discover.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book about
This is a great book about God. This book gives you a feeling that no matter what God is always there for you and is going to get you through anything. No matter what is going on in your life you can read this book and you will feel better. This book also has some good bible quotes in it too. I liked that with every story they found a bilbe quote to go along with it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It speaks the truth
This book is an incredible compilation of real life stories that show the true heart of God. Some stories are hard to read because it is difficult to imagine someone going through such hardship, but each story ends with the message that God is alive today and working in our midst. True will bring hope to struggling teens. Adults who read will be renewed in their faith through the words of teens. It is refreshing to find text that is so candid about real tradegy and yet so candid about God's Love ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This Book is Great for Adults as well as Teens
This book is worth reading and passing on to your friends - teens and adults. I felt all kinds of emotions as I read the teens' life stories. I laughed and cried - which is essential for a good movie. The book "TRUE" was better than a movie because I learned something about life, myself, my friends and God from each story. There is something that will touch each person in the situations covered in the book. Another advantage is that each story is well written and short enough for the busiest person ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - For Christians and non Christians alike
This is a book that I, as a young woman who follows the Lord passionately loved and took in, I can't say enough how much it opened my eyes to things I'm not doing enough as a Christian, and the little things I can be thankful for. And I've a devoted Christian of 2 years, think of what it can do for a person who's never accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Instead of opening their eyes to the little things that I missed, maybe they'll open their eyes to the huge thing: Salvation. I won't sit here ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a generation, a revolution
(...)
This book brought some new things to my attention. After being away from home for 6 months experiencing God, and then returning home, it pumped me up to the sharing teh reality of God all over the world. Over those past 6 months, I TRUELY saw God's powerful hand, and how real He is, coming home I was a bit worried and disturbed that I wouldn't see God as clearly as I did in Asia.
I picked up this book right away and it was and still is the first book and only book i've read since ... Read More
