We consider this one of our very best stories for boys 12 years of age and under.

The Young Christian, formerly known by the title Save the Erring, is the story of Freddie, a boy who had always been rebellious and difficult to control. Freddie is sent to a quiet school in the country, in hopes of seeing changes in his life.

Among the new friends Charlie makes there — some of whom are not so good for him, after all — is Joe, who easily spots the rebel heart in Charlie and prays for guidance when he suspects Freddie had stolen some money.

Follow Freddie through the pages of this Christian children’s story, seeing his transformation from a very self-willed child to a true witness to all his friends for the Savior.
