Gospel-Centered Life For Teens (Participant's Guide)

“After seeing such great fruit in my years as a youth pastor and small group leader, Im so thankful that this great curriculum has been rewritten with teens in mind. In 24 years of youth ministry and the shepherding of my own 4 teenage children I have found no other study so important and foundational in the way they are to think and live as The Gospel–Centered Life. I wholeheartedly recommend it.”

“The Gospel–Centered Life for Teens is a thoughtful, age–appropriate adaptation of The Gospel–Centered Life. I like using GCL for one reason: it helpfully illuminates just how big the gospel really is for people like you and me living out our lives right here and now. It helps people like us see that following Jesus affects more of our lives than we might ever have imagined. Its relentlessly relational and hopeful.”

“Serge's distillation of gospel truth for teens is a great tool for churches and ministries that are seeking to raise up the next generation of church and culture leaders. I heartily recommend it.”

“There is nothing more important in discipling students then helping them grasp the power of the gospel for their own lives. The Gospel–Centered Life for Teens is a powerful tool and welcome resource! Many thanks to Will Walker and Bob Thune for developing this excellent tool.”

“All human beings are religious. Everyone worships someone or something. There is always a center to our lives. In a world offering teens a constant barrage of ‘centers’ that lie and can never fulfill, The Gospel–Centered Life takes teens on a much–needed journey into the place where they can hear Gods voice, understand Gods grand story for their lives, and assume the place for which theyve been made.”

“The gospel is a crucial topic for this next generation and one we must invest in as we raise up future leaders of the Church. The Gospel–Centered Life for Teens is therefore a great and timely resource for helping to form spiritually mature teens with a life cemented in the gospel, which unleashes them to make a profound difference for the Kingdom.”

“Thune and Walker have given us a gift by reminding us that we never move past our need for the gospel. It is always shaping, always informing, and always transforming us more and more into the image of Christ. If you want a clear, easy–to–understand guide for teens on the theology and application of the gospel in your life, this guide is for you!”

“I know so many teens who need these lessons. Theyre living in an image–gripped world where acceptance seems based on this or that label. The Gospel–Centered Life for Teens turns that on its head, steadily and sweetly pointing students to ‘the only label that really matters: ‘in Christ.’ What great lessons! They take on the tough issues teens deal with every day, like gossip and greed, and they show how believing the gospel changes everything. I wish every teen I know could do this study.”

“Fantastic study! Creative, innovative, refreshing, and biblically focused!”

“The Gospel–Centered Life For Teens is a remarkable, easy–to–use curriculum for helping young adults go deeper into the glories of all that God has done for us in Christ. Important theological concepts—including God's holiness, our sinfulness, and the relationship between the law and the gospel—are explained in simple, clear, and compelling language. This is a resource that can simultaneously introduce teens to Christ and help committed Christians grow in their faith. I'm excited to recommend it.”
