In innumerable discussions and activities dedicated to better understanding and helping teenagers, one aspect of teenage life is curiously overlooked. Very few such efforts pay serious attention to the role of religion and spirituality in the lives of American adolescents. But many teenagers are very involved in religion. Surveys reveal that 35% attend religious services weekly and another 15% attend at least monthly. 60% say that religious faith is important in their lives. 40% report that they pray daily. 25% say that they have been "born again." Teenagers feel good about the congregations they belong to. Some say that faith provides them with guidance and resources for knowing how to live well. What is going on in the religious and spiritual lives of American teenagers? What do they actually believe? What religious practices do they engage in? Do they expect to remain loyal to the faith of their parents? Or are they abandoning traditional religious institutions in search of a new, more authentic "spirituality"? This book attempts to answer these and related questions as definitively as possible. It reports the findings of The National Study of Youth and Religion, the largest and most detailed such study ever undertaken. The NYSR conducted a nationwide telephone survey of teens and significant caregivers, as well as nearly 300 in-depth face-to-face interviews with a sample of the population that was surveyed. The results show that religion and spirituality are indeed very significant in the lives of many American teenagers. Among many other discoveries, they find that teenagers are far more influenced by the religious beliefs and practices of their parents and caregivers than commonly thought. They refute the conventional wisdom that teens are "spiritual but not religious." And they confirm that greater religiosity is significantly associated with more positive adolescent life outcomes. This eagerly-awaited volume not only provides an unprecedented understanding of adolescent religion and spirituality but, because teenagers serve as bellwethers for possible future trends, it affords an important and distinctive window through which to observe and assess the current state and future direction of American religion as a whole.

Paul, a divorced father, wants to back out of his child care arrangement and spend less time with his children. Nathan has been lying to his wife about a serious medical condition. Marsha, recently separated from her husband, cannot resist telling her children negative things about their father. What is the role of therapy in these situations? Trained to strive for neutrality and to focus strictly on the clients' needs, most therapists generally consider moral issues such as fairness, truthfulness, and obligation beyond their domain. Now, an award-winning psychologist and family therapist criticizes psychotherapy's overemphasis on individual self-interest and calls for a sense of moral responsibility in therapy.

A brand new soul. His first lifetime. It can't be that difficult, can it? The innocence of the question Jack poses, as he leaves the world he knows so well and dives into the complexity of life, allows us a chuckle. New and naïve, this soul is bombarded by the senses and restrictions of physical existence-yet once death releases him back to familiarity, he begins an intriguing journey of self-discovery. The extraordinary beauty and characteristics of our spiritual nature are brought into focus as we accompany Jack on his journey. Time and again, he takes on his challenges-stumbling, failing, learning-with his steps often mirroring our own. An innate desire propels Jack onward, allowing us insight into the world we know so well and the tantalizing realms that beckon us. And we see that it can be that difficult as we catch a glimpse of Heaven and walk to the edges of Hell.

A WORLD FULL OF HUMANS, BUT DEVOID OF LIFEDeath has finally hung up his scythe: all the souls have been gathered, the Earth just a museum piece for the machines.Now, he spends his time relaxing in the void with the one andonly machine-built soul - a soul that cannot enter paradise.All is peaceful until one soul escapes from heaven, forcing Death and his ghostlike companion on a journey that may destroy the very concept of what it means to be alive.The second novel in J. S. Wright's ever-increasing collection, Soul Searching throws a fresh perspective on the eternal philosophical questions of life, death, freewill and whether a red dress is practical attire for reaping.Whilst he has been unable to get hold of people famous enough to quote on the front cover, Julian's works have been highly recommended by his editor, at least one of his friends, and his mother.

Science has learned to understand the soul, and can track souls through this life and beyond. A specialist unit of the South African police is using a Soul Tracker device in a harrowing search for a serial killer. As Tracker Ruth Hicks and her partner Franklin Banks race to find the killer before the next victim dies, the case becomes frighteningly personal. They begin to question the morality of their methods. When one's soul can incriminate them before birth, can there ever be justice? Who can be trusted with the power to look inside the soul? This science fiction novel by South African author Stephen Embleton has been likened to a mix of Minority Report and Silence of the Lambs, with unique ideas all its own. The thrilling story features a serial killer, new and disturbing technology, and an ancient secret society. And flying cars!
