CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD FOR TEENS
by: Neale Donald Walsch
Author of the Conversations with God series

     Being a teenager can be both challenging and difficult. In facing life-changing decisions teens are often bombarded with information from the friends they hang out with, the movies they watch, the music they listen too—

—“Is there right and wrong?”

—“Why is the world filled with hate?”

—“How do you decide who gets to be Alanis Morissette or Michael Jordan and who gets to live regular lives?”

—“Why does the world have its priorities so mixed up? Are teenagers the only one who know what’s really important, and that it’s not “making money,” or “getting to the top,” or “being famous,” or any of those things?”

     As young adults face these tough issues where can they turn for answers?
 
     “They turn to God,” says Neale Donald Walsch author of the Conversations with God series. According to Walsch, “all of us are having conversations with god, every minute of every day, we just need to be ready for when he answers”

—“So ‘right and wrong’ are a moveable feast, changing and shifting from time to time and place to place. It may not be wrong to drive a car at 120 mph if you are trying to win the Indianapolis 500 but could be ‘wrong’ if you are trying to get to the grocery store. It all depends on what you are trying to do.”

—“I do not decide who gets to be Alanis Morissette and who gets to live regular lives. You do.”

—“Do not worry about “the group.” The group will go away. One day it will simply not be there. Yet you will never go away. You will be with your Self until the end of time.”

—“…you don’t have to change anything in order to be lovable. You don’t have to throw away a part of yourself, or any aspect of who you are.”

     The voices heard in Conversations with God for Teens are real—actual questions asked by kids in every day situations, both big and small—real life issues. Claudia S., 16, Perth, Australia; Travis M.,16, Ashland, Oregon; Lily C., Miami, Florida; Shimjoko, 18, Tokyo, Japan: Susan, 14, Spartanburg, South Carolina; Peter T., Moscow; Tomas G., 18, Cape Town, South Africa—just a few of the questioners from around the world, all seeking the same thing—how to find meaning in a seemingly meaningless world.

     This book can change your teen’s life. Relevant, timely—at times controversial, Conversations with God for Teens answers the tough questions that teens ask.
