This 2015 revised edition includes end-of-chapter questions for the readers as well as updated material sprinkled throughout to reflect what has occurred in recent years in the church and world. The Five Marks of Mission and what it means to be a disciple of Christ is a focus of this new version, which also models student-centered learning as opposed to teacher-driven instruction.

For teen study and confirmation preparation, this book can serve as a curriculum for helping teens discover Scripture, church history, sacraments, the meaning and practice of prayer, and what ministry means in the lives of real teens today. A framework for small-group gatherings for each chapter is included in the back of the book. 

Foreword by Dr. Lisa Kimball, Virginia Theological Seminary. Recommend for those interested in youth ministry and work with teens.
