*Revealed: Discovering Your True Identity in Christ for Teen Boys and Young Men
Authors: Alex Kendrick, Stephen Kendrick, Troy Schmidt
Review: At first glance, I would say this book goes pretty deep into some topics that teen boys and young men have to deal with. It’s not a light devotional but it presses into the hard truths of challenges that are presented to our youth today. If this is for a young teen your life, I recommend you preview it to decide on the maturity level of the teen and also to prepare for possible discussion points.

*Radiant: His Light, Your Life for Teen Girls and Young Women
Author: Priscilla Shirer
Melody (age 12):
Do you know who you truly are? Priscilla Shirer, who stars as Olivia Brooks in the new movie, Overcomer, writes about identity in Christ in her new book Radiant.
Radiant is a powerful and thought-provoking book. It will leave you wanting to take action in your own life. I love the beautiful cover which draws your attention to the book. I also really enjoying reading the verses, prayers, and openers at the beginning of the chapters.
Radiant is a book inspired by the movie Overcomer, where the character that actress Aryn Wright-Thompson plays learned who she truly was. This book, Radiant, also shows us who we truly are in Christ.
Radiant was inspiring and made me rethink who I am. It is a powerful and thought-provoking book. It tells your identity in Christ and inspires you to take action.
