There is a new book out (published by Shepherd Press) that is causing quite a stir in the Reformed/Evangelical world. Surprisingly the book is about reaching teenagers with the gospel - even more specifically, reaching out to "angry, unmotivated, disinterested teens". The title of the book is "Get Outta My Face!" and it is written by Dr. Rick Horne. Westminister Bookstore (http://www.wtsbooks.com/) reported selling an unprecedented number of copies (1,000) in just 12 hours!
So what exactly is in the book that causing such as stir?
"Get Outta My Face!, written for Christian parents, teachers, and youth workers, is about reaching angry, unmotivated, disinterested teens with biblical counsel. Such teens confused and insecure - are selfish; they want what they want, right now. They are corrupted by sin and this corruption is the cause of their problem. Despite all their sin problems, they are still made in the image of God, and this is the key to helping them. This book will help with addressing the teen's sin and bringing them to their God-given desires and godly actions. Far from dismissing or sugarcoating sin, this approach opens wide the door to evangelizing the unsaved teen and to helping the Christian teen grow in holiness and wisdom." (adapted from the publishers description)
The first chapter of "Get Outta My Face" is available HERE
