Product Description
Senior year is a pivotal moment in the life of teens, a time when young men and women are shaping their goals and hopes for the future and seeking spiritual guidance. Creating a Christian Lifestyle, a comprehensive one-semester course, addresses significant issues teens will face as they choose among the many life paths they may travel--single or married life, religious life, or ordained ministry. The text examines themes common to all those paths: identity and autonomy, love, communication, sexuality, friendship, creativity and learning, work, money and possessions, and suffering and healing. Thought-provoking stories, poems, and personal examples lead students into discussion; engaging activities invite reflection, discussion, and journal writing. The full-color lively design and over 50 original artworks by students stimulate students' interest.

I have used this text with high school seniors. It is superb, covering the key issues that seniors face in trying to shape a Christian lifestyle. The book is filled with wonderful anecdotes and hard-won wisdom.The teaching manual is equally superb.I have heard that the publisher is updating this book; I hope they leave it pretty much as is because it's terrific.

I am using this book for a class I'm teaching, and find it very real and human. I am teaching a young lady who is going into her senior year, and although it is geared towards this age group, I find it a little young.

Unfortunately my son had to use this book for a religion class. As a Roman Catholic parent you should be very careful when reading this book. It contains only sporadic Church teachings. Instead it mostly reflects the author's own perspectives.
