I loved this so much!!! As a young adult myself I learned a lot from this book and will encourage everyone I know to read this!!! This book is good for the teen/young adult that is struggling with the difficulties of growing into their adult lives and responsibilities as a Christian. The book gives you biblically sound advice and encourages you to grow and continue in your faith, all the while using fantastic illustrations to help you understand the concept.
5 out of 5 stars and will definitely re-read it!!!

Awesome book for teenagers and young adults!! I want all my younger friends to read this. Mr. Schmidt really knows how to communicate with this generation - and he makes a great connection with the people he's trying to reach. He's very passionate about the lives of young adults, and reading his book was a great encouragement to me! Even though I'd heard a lot on this subject before, it was a refreshing read. =)

I never got into his Discover Your Destiny or Hook, Line, and Sinker books too much, but I really like Life Quest and give it to all my graduates along with A Case For Bible College. Life Quest is written specifically for upperclassmen and graduates who are out of their teen years and facing adulthood. It is obvious from the book that Bro. Schmidt had worked extensively with the people of this age group, and the advice is worded well for them.

I enjoyed this book a lot. Our youth group went through this in small groups. Very important message for our generation. Cary Schmidt really engages the young adult culture and shows the blessings of "braving adulthood with Biblical passion." Excellent!
