Description:
“Youth care! Don’t let anyone deceive you into thinking they’re not interested in spiritual things – they want something real, direct, honest, and relevant to the world they live in…the questions in this book reveal some of the issues they are struggling with, and our answers show how the Bible directly addresses these issues.” –Carl Kerby, President of Reasons for Hope
An overwhelming majority of today’s youth are walking away from their faith. Why? For many, questions they had were never answered or were answered inadequately (e.g., “You just need to have more faith.”). This being the case, our speakers at Reasons for Hope intentionally ask them to write down the issues posing the biggest questions or doubts about their faith. This book addresses 28 of them.
Young people are asking tough questions, and they are ready to listen to straightforward, authentic, evidential answers. Allow the blended voices of thinkers, theologians, and practitioners of Reasons for Hope (and a few of their friends) to give you real answers to these real questions today.
“青少年其实很在乎！不要让任何人误导你，以为他们对属灵的事没有兴趣。他们真正想要的，是一些真实、直接、坦诚，而且与他们所生活的世界息息相关的答案……这本书里的问题，让我们看见他们正在面对和挣扎的事情；而我们的回答，则帮助他们明白圣经如何直接回应这些问题。”
—— Carl Kerby，Reasons for Hope 主席
今天，许多青少年正在逐渐离开他们的信仰。为什么？其中一个重要原因，是他们心中的疑问从未得到解答，或只得到一些无法真正解决疑惑的回答，例如：“你只需要更有信心。”
因此，Reasons for Hope 的讲员会主动邀请青少年写下那些最困扰他们、让他们对信仰产生疑问甚至怀疑的问题。本书从中选出 28 个青少年真实提出的问题，并逐一作出回应。
年轻人正在提出许多困难而重要的问题，而他们也愿意聆听直接、真诚、有理有据的答案。本书汇集 Reasons for Hope 的思想工作者、神学研究者、实际服事者以及几位同行伙伴的观点，从圣经和证据出发，为这些真实的问题提供真实而扎实的回答。
