“In Alongside, Drew Hill helps adults understand teenagers and helps teenagers understand themselves. But more importantly, Drew helps all of us see the only remedy for our problems is found in the gospel of Jesus Christ. But teens, he tells us, require more than gospel information, they need a loving gospel relationship. They need someone to walk alongside of them. Parents and youth workers would be wise to read this book and mine the treasure held in its pages. A good book will make you cry and laugh, inspire you to action and compel you to pass it on. This is a good book.”

“Drew Hill engagingly demonstrates that the incarnation is not just a central Christian doctrine. It’s a model for how we share Jesus with teenagers. Alongside takes us on an authentic journey into the exciting yet perilous world of adolescence, making the case that sharing the gospel is not merely by words. ‘It’s opening up our very lives,’ entering into their lives, as Jesus did. This is must reading for parents and youth workers!”

“Drew Hill was my camp counselor twenty years ago. He has photos (read: blackmail) to prove it. Ever since I've known him, Drew’s passion and gift has been bringing gospel grace to young adults. In Alongside: Loving Teenagers with the Gospel, Drew has distilled decades of youth-ministry experience into a resource that is funny, engaging, and profound. Whether you're a parent, pastor, youth leader, or teenager, I commend this book to you.”

“Alongside is a great read for any parent or student leader who wants to effectively engage students with the gospel. With years of firsthand experience working with middle school and high school students, Drew shares keen insights into the next generation while offering practical suggestions for leading students to find their identity in Christ. Really powerful.”

“Alongside: Loving Teenagers with the Gospel is a modern day primer for parents and youth workers. A must read for those who are serious about meeting teenagers where they are. Drew Hill’s format of questions and a prayer is very compelling and helpful. Most of all, you can tell that Drew Hill is not just an author; he is someone who has given his life to this high calling of reaching teens for the gospel.”

“Drew Hill’s passion for Jesus and teenagers is contagious! Alongside is an excellent read. Short, fun-to-read chapters, packed full of relevant stories and practical ministry ideas. Powerful and helpful guiding questions at the end of each chapter to help both parents and youth leaders process and apply the information. And I love that each chapter is drawn together with a pertinent Scripture passage and prayer intended to be used by the reader. These prayers alone are worth the price of the book. Warning: Don’t read this book unless you want to be impacted in your personal and your ministry life. You won’t be the same, your family won’t be the same, and because of your increased effectiveness as a Kingdom minister, the teenagers with whom you share the journey won’t be the same!”
