'In more than twenty years of youth ministry, I have not found a better resource to commend to students with confidence that they will engage with Scriptures. Our hope and prayer is that hundreds of students in our diocese will use Engage to spend time daily in God's word. We know that this will have a lasting impact on their lives and establish life-long habits of personal Bible study.'
- Dave Wright, Co-ordinator for youth ministries, Episcopal diocese of South Carolina
I have two girls aged 11 and 8 who have found the series not just inspiring but as well stimulating. We all look forward to our family devotion time together, it really engages, for us it is question time. Would definitely recommend for use to family with growing up kids, it is all worth it.
Books where a great buy, really helpful for me
My 2 teenagers and I started with Issue 10 and because that was so helpful we selected a few other Issues that we thought would be relevant. At the mo' we are in Issue 1 which is just as helpful as 10. It is well laid out with bite size thoughts, not too in depth just the right level for teens. They did find Amos hard going because it was a bit depressing but glad John's gospel followed imediately after that study. The extra readings at the end of most studies are great as they are optional but we always end up doing them because they go that little bit deeper.
One thing I would say is that we must remember that our christian walk is a walk of faith and a walk dependant on the Holy Spirit so maybe that needs more of an emphasis rather than the doing lots for God in all the strength and determination we can muster.
Engage notes assist older young people and young adults to engage in a systematic way with the Scriptures. Rather than jumping from here to there, the notes move steadily through a Bible book so that readers have a better understanding both of content and context. They are currently the preferred notes for older teenagers in our youth group.
