I have started to use "Because you are strong" with my 16-year-old son and wanted to express what a great resource this is. Each chapter teaches a different type of Bible study, all around the theme of strength, which is such an appropriate one for teenage boys. Anyone who is technology savvy can easily make the studies even more accessible for the digital generation by looking for online resources. Already we have downloaded and learned how to use a Bible memory app and figured out how to use Nave's online version of the topic dictionary. There is a lot of writing for my dysgraphic boy, but since we are working through it together, I can easily modify the assignments. Working through this book is helping me disciple my son in ways that I hadn't considered. Well done!

This study is fantastic!
I am doing it along with boys AND girls. The applications are for anyone. For the girls and myself, I just printed a more "girlish" photo, but otherwise it is perfect for girls as well.
I love learning how to do the different types of bible studies, and all the suggestions for repeating it in other ways. That makes the study so versatile, that it can be done over and over with different scriptures and topics.
Another homerun from Doorposts!

When used along side the Scriptures, Because You Are Strong aims to teach a better biblical understanding of strength, where it comes from and how best to use it. I really think it would be a great addition to any homeschooling morning or simply to share with your young man for some topical direction in the Word. Great Job Doorposts!
