When you read the Bible, you are not looking at words on a page. No, you are walking in the mind of Christ. When you hold the Bible in your hand, you hold God's heart. When you dig into the Word of God, you dig into the Lord's deepest desire for your life and the lives of all His children. Spending time each day reading the Bible is spending time each day with Jesus. You read His thoughts, discover His will, peek into His heart, and grab hold of His grand plan for you. Now that is something to get excited about!The problem is that most teens do not experience these things because they aren't sure how to go about reading the Bible. "Where do I start?" "How do I know if I am really learning anything?" "How much should I be reading each day? What's too much? What's too little?" These questions and more keep many from even getting started. That's where this devotional series comes in. This third book in Mark J. Musser's devotional trilogy helps teens complete their walk through the entire New Testament.

In the process, you will come to know God better and yourself better. The study of truth will help you combat Satan's lies and culture's faulty thinking. You'll grow in maturity, develop a heart for service, deepen your prayer life, get questions answered, and gain the tools necessary to help change the world.Those all sound like great things...so what are you waiting for?

In our constant search for fulfillment, we often immerse ourselves in the world and saturate ourselves with it. Only, at the end of each busy day filled with phone apps, sports, video games, TV, movies, music, friends, and more, we find that what we thought would fill us has left us not quite satisfied. Not sure what to do about this, we decide to immerse ourselves a little deeper next time, working to super-saturate ourselves with everything that promises pleasure, fulfillment, and satisfaction. Only, again, we get to the end of the day and realize the world's promises have seemed to slip through our fingers. We repeat this pattern over and over again, discovering each time that what promised so much didn't really deliver. Have you been there? There is One, however, whose promises always prove reliable. Jesus promised life, but not just any life. He promised a life that would be full and satisfying, and that promise has proven true for two thousand years. Indeed, everything you need to experience real life is found in Christ. Not quite sure if that is true? Well, consider taking a trip through the Four Gospels, encountering Christ through God's Word in nearly 100 total devotions. I promise you'll be glad you did!

The youth of America has the energy and enthusiasm necessary to change the world. They only need a mission and a vision worth fighting for. With that in mind, know that this devotional does not add any water to the Gospel. Instead, it boldly challenges teens to strive after the standards, requirements, and expectations of God's Word. In these pages, total surrender is taught, not agreeable assent. Christ-likeness is the call, not fitting in. This book points youth to a holy God that wants to guide their lives, not tag along with what they are doing. It urges the coming generation to grab hold of a vision to follow Christ, not culture; to seek after holiness, not Hollywood stars, and to desire heavenly things, not worldly ones.That is the purpose of this book. If you are ready to let God change our youth so they can change the world, then let's get started!Some teen devotionals use hardly any Scripture at all or tout building faith in just five minutes a day. That is NOT this devotional. Using Mark Musser's tried and tested S-C-R-I-P-T method, each devotional has six sections. Every day begins with START HERE where teens will read a humorous or interesting intro. What follows is the CONSIDER section which will provide a brief overview of the biblical chapter focused on for the day. After that comes READ, where that day's chapter is studied. Once the chapter has been read through, youth will head to the INVEST portion which usually contains five to seven questions to get them thinking about what was read and how it affects daily life. Next comes PRAY. In this area, suggestions are offered on what should be prayed about that particular day. Finally, TRAINING offers practical steps to take during the day to help apply the Word to life. -- 90 Total Devotions-- All 13 letters from Paul-- Great for youth ministries-- Awesome for families with teens (and pre-teens)-- Transformational gift for high school graduates-- Can even be used for weekly teen Bible studies

Everything you need in a youth ministry curriculum--20 great lessons, downloadable PowerPoint for each lesson, video illustrations, small group questions, application activities, and more!A few years back, the National Study of Youth and Religion (NSYR) undertook a massive three year study. The results were not pretty. The NSYR found that most American teens, even those claiming to be Christians, embraced a faith in "Moralistic Therapeutic Deism--a hodgepodge of banal, self-serving, feel good beliefs--that bears little resemblance to the historic teachings of Christianity."Sadly, it is not teenagers to blame for this, but churches. Instead of filling teens with a counter cultural mission that requires intentional living and sacrificial giving, far too many youth ministries offer teens what Kenda Dean calls a "diner theology: a bargain religion, cheap but satisfying, whose gods require little in the way of fidelity or sacrifice...filling [teens] with an agreeable porridge about the importance of being nice, feeling good about yourself, and saving God for emergencies." As if all of that wasn't bad enough, the study went on to show that the average teenager views God as either a butler or a therapist, someone who meets their needs when summoned, who listens non-judgmentally, and helps them feel good about themselves.In spite of all of that, the youth of America still have the energy and enthusiasm necessary to change the world. We just need to give them a mission and a vision worth fighting for, then point them in the right direction! So it's time to quit adding water to the Gospel. Instead, let's boldly challenge today's youth to strive after the standards, requirements, and expectations of God's Word.Youth leaders, let's teach total surrender not agreeable assent. Let's preach Christ-likeness not "moral affirmation and a feel-better faith." Let's point youth to a holy God that wants to guide their lives instead of pointing them to a "buddy" who's willing to tag along behind. And let's give teens a vision to follow Christ, not culture; to seek after holiness, not Hollywood stars, and to desire heavenly things, not worldly ones.That is the purpose of this lesson book. Are you ready to make an eternal difference in the lives of today's youth? Are you ready to turn teens' eyes from the culture and focus them on Christ? Are you ready to be on the front lines, training and equipping our teens to change the world? If so, then download this book today!

Everything you need--20 MORE great lessons, downloadable PowerPoint for each lesson, video illustrations, small group questions, application activities, take home devotionals, and more!Every day our youth are bombarded by the culture and its message. Think of the forty plus hours a week our teens are in school. What message are they getting? Think of the fifty-four hours of media intake a week the average 12-18 year-old absorbs. What message is the world giving? Think of the time spent with peers and coaches and tutors. What message are they instilling? All of that time adds up to over one hundred hours per week. The sheer volume of time makes it incredibly difficult for our young people not to be lead astray by the culture.Yet, in spite of all of that, the youth of America still have the energy and enthusiasm necessary to change the world! So Youth leaders, let's use the time we have with today's teens to teach total surrender not agreeable assent. Let's preach Christ-likeness not "moral affirmation and a feel-better faith." Let's point them to a holy God that wants to guide their lives instead of pointing them to a "buddy" who's willing to tag along behind.

Throughout history, very few people challenge the norms of society. Whenever someone does, they stand out. Few though they may be, there are shining examples through history of men and women who threw down the gauntlet to their generations. Moses confronted Pharaoh. Gideon provoked the followers of Baal. Paul faced down the Pharisees. We can look to Esther, Lincoln, Mandela, Paine, Schindler, Luther, and Christ Himself for inspiration. The world is shaped, and has always been shaped, by individuals. There is a stirring in the youth of this nation. There are those who are ready to embrace a cause even if it compels them to live counter to their culture. These twelve, and fourteen, and seventeen year old potential dissidents are just waiting on a leader who will articulate the vision to be countercultural. You are that leader.

"The notion of the church as a countercultural community of disciples confounds many conventional divides within the Christian family (liberal and conservative, church and sect), while forcing redefinition of commonplace categories like religion and politics, sacred and secular. The contributors to this book - theologians, social theorists, philosophers, historians, Catholics and Protestants of various backgrounds - reflect this shifting of categories and divisions. The book provides thought-provoking Christian perspectives on war and genocide, racism and nationalism, the legitimacy of liberalism and capitalism, and more."--BOOK JACKET.

As long as there has been culture, there has been counterculture. At times it moves deep below the surface of things, a stealth mode of being all but invisible to the dominant paradigm; at other times it’s in plain sight, challenging the status quo; and at still other times it erupts in a fiery burst of creative–or destructive–energy to change the world forever. But until now the countercultural phenomenon has been one of history’s great blind spots. Individual countercultures have been explored, but never before has a book set out to demonstrate the recurring nature of counterculturalism across all times and societies, and to illustrate its dynamic role in the continuous evolution of human values and cultures. Countercultural pundit and cyberguru R. U. Sirius brilliantly sets the record straight in this colorful, anecdotal, and wide-ranging study based on ideas developed by the late Timothy Leary with Dan Joy. With a distinctive mix of scholarly erudition and gonzo passion, Sirius and Joy identify the distinguishing characteristics of countercultures, delving into history and myth to establish beyond doubt that, for all their surface differences, countercultures share important underlying principles: individualism, anti-authoritarianism, and a belief in the possibility of personal and social transformation. Ranging from the Socratic counterculture of ancient Athens and the outsider movements of Judaism, which left indelible marks on Western culture, to the Taoist, Sufi, and Zen Buddhist countercultures, which were equally influential in the East, to the famous countercultural moments of the last century–Paris in the twenties, Haight-Ashbury in the sixties, Tropicalismo, women’s liberation, punk rock–to the cutting-edge countercultures of the twenty-first century, which combine science, art, music, technology, politics, and religion in astonishing (and sometimes disturbing) new ways, Counterculture Through the Ages is an indispensable guidebook to where we’ve been . . . and where we’re going.
