FaithSharing for Teens finds that difficult to reach blend of Scripture, reflection, excellent process, and relevant themes for young people to grow as disciples. The structure and format are inviting and nonjudgmental while addressing matters of great importance: anger, anxiety, hope, peace, forgiveness, friendship, discipleship, and more. FaithSharing for Teens is a fine resource and an excellent addition for those dedicated to serving young people.

Our faith is of little use if it does not connect to our daily lives. FaithSharing for Teens approaches the task head-on and lands right on target. The method of step back, reflect, and share is brilliant in its simplicity and reliability. The process works every time! The four categories of faith sharing sessions—Scripture, Guided Meditation, Media Messages, Objects and Images—provide all that is needed to guide a group of young people through weeks of spiritual reflection and growth. Best of all, as one reads these sessions, it becomes easy to imagine developing homemade sessions tailored to specific local circumstances. If you add this book to your library, it won't spend much time on the shelf.

In their psychological development, teens are at the time in their lives when they are learning to think symbolically and metaphorically. They are able to see the hand of God in their everyday lives. Theisen has constructed a program to meet teens in their daily lives where they are ready to share their faith experiences with others. Recommended for youth ministry programs and Catholic middle or high schools.
