Character And Courage: Teen Devotional
Who is your mentor?
Can you imagine if one of the most prolific writers of the New Testament offered to mentor you? Imagine if you could sit down and hear his stories and learn from his mistakes. Imagine if you could learn about the amazing things he had seen God do and how to walk closer with Jesus. Guess what? We don’t have to imagine it. The letters of 1 and 2 Timothy are like sitting at the feet of Paul himself. His message to Timothy is the same message to us: we are to be people of character and courage.

Parent Differently (Kathy Koch, PhD)
This title will be released 11/7/2023- Preorder now!
Behavior modification does not guarantee good character qualities. Character influences decisions. It’s evidenced in our speech, actions, and attitudes. It’s about who we are and what we do. The world competes for the hearts of our kids—and we see its negative impact in their pride, laziness, and entitlement. As Christians, however, we want to see the character of Jesus Christ in our children. Dads and moms, grandparents, and teachers all want to see their children grow in humility, gratitude, and respect—for others and themselves. We want our kids to be brave, compassionate, and joyful. We don’t want our kids to flounder through life. We want them to flourish and live into their God-given designs and callings.

The Duel (George E. Sargent)
“This story requires attentiveness, self-examination, and soul-searching. I found myself undone on many occasions, seeing myself on far too many pages. I’ve been admonished to live in the fear of God rather than the fear of man. So, my friends, if you are interested in a story that will challenge your manner of life and cause you to fall on your knees and beg God to change you, here it is.” — Mark Hamby
Written from the striking viewpoint of the Bible personified, The Duel reveals spiritual tensions that occur in friendships, business interactions, and family relationships. Themes of honesty, forgiveness, vengeance, greed, lust, and salvation are developed. In the end wisdom triumphs! The author unearths our secret struggles and hidden sins, powerfully weaving Scripture throughout to reveal how to avoid falling into despair, regret, and shame.

The Weed with an Ill Name
New cover and type-set edition of one of our finest children’s stories, reprinted from the 19th century. Few children’s books speak frankly with them about their own sinful nature and inclinations; or their tendency to judge harshly those who sin in ways that they do not believe themselves capable of.
There may be no children’s story ever published which displays these points better than this one — and also persuading children how sin is like the tough roots of weeds, which must be pulled out of their hold in the soil, before they by degrees take over the entire field of our hearts.
