Strengthen Their Faith
My husbands’ dad died when he was thirteen. He and his mom lived in a small town with no other family nearby. With such a tragedy occurring at a pivotal time in his life, he could have been led down any number of roads into dark places, but he had several men around him that looked out for him. They made sure he got to church, spent time with him and ultimately set him on the path to becoming a pastor. Our teens need people in their lives to teach them how to read the Bible, follow God’s will and be servants to those around them. Here is a great way to get started with your teens today!
