From the Introduction:
"This is the time in our lives when all of the struggles, all of the questions, all of the anxieties and uncertainties need to become secondary to Jesus' call of discipleship. It's not that the struggles and questions we face are unimportant, it's that they're so important that to refuse to ground them in the person and power of Jesus is reckless. Trying to figure life out on your own sounds heroic to some, but we don't hold the answers to what we're dealing with: Jesus does.".
This book discusses in a frank and honest way the hot topic issues young adults are facing today as they endeavor to be disciples of Jesus. The foundations of discipleship, advice on "the" 3 great idols of money, sex and power and a concrete plan for daily discipleship, this is a book no young adult / emerging leader should be without.
