Product Description
"The authors speak to us in humility but with a confidence and courage which is often lacking in our own Christian discipleship. Their use of personal experiences and "story" echo that of the Master Himself...I am sure you will enjoy reading the different reflections in the book and I know it will repay your time and attention a hundredfold." Bishop Mark O'Toole, Chair of the Catholic Bishop's Department of Evangelization and Catechesis (UK). "I have read enough of your booklet to be able to say that it will prove helpful not only to teenagers and young adults but also to others in a much older age group. For instance, I found the chapter on prayer as inspiring and helpful as many books written for priests and religious." Cardinal Wilfred Napier, South Africa."I have no hesitation in recommending this very contemporary book for the remarkable ways in which it brings many of the eternal truths of our faith alive in new, exciting and memorable ways...I am convinced that 'Essentials for Catholic Teens' is important to God, and will speak very powerfully to all those who read it, just as it has to me." Charles Whitehead, Chairman of the International Charismatic Consultation (ICC), Director of Premier Christian Radio, and Founder of Celebrate Catholic Conference. "If only I had this book when I was 15. Now at 67, and with the 'experience' of age I realise what I have missed It is packed with a series of personal journeys to better know and love Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The guidance is illustrated with Scripture, the Catechism, sayings of the Saints and grounded by the personal life encounters of the varied young contributors...It is the road map to life on fire with the Holy Spirit. It should be required reading for all young people in our parishes and schools." Deacon Andrew Shute, Plymouth Diocese"With so many challenges for young people, they need the fuel to stand for Christ and run the race. In 'Essentials for Catholic Teen's, it encourages young Catholics to live life to the full in Christ (John 10:10). The Holy Spirit leaps off the pages and is a great resource for all young people. We highly recommend this book to all Catholic Teens." Mario and Anna Cappello, Founders of the ICPE Mission.Essentials for Catholic Teens is all about connecting with God. It is in God that we live and move and have our being. This book is there to help you connect with God.Written by nineteen authors from eight countries and four continents, Essentials speaks from heart to heart. From Prayer and Scripture, to the Mass and Relationships, Essentials provides you with everything a Catholic teen needs to know.Personal testimonies from other young Catholics will encourage you as young people share their challenges, stories and faith in God. "Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire" St Catherine of Sienna.
