Stand Up, Stand Strong - by Sara Barratt (Paperback)

About the Book

Lead editor for TheRebelution.com shows teens what a biblical worldview looks like in a confused culture, challenging them to consider the hot button issues of today through the lens of Scripture.

Book Synopsis

If we live according to the gospel, we're going to make waves. Why? Because the way of Christ is countercultural. It doesn't go with the flow, compromise on truth, or stay silent in the face of injustice--so neither can we. No matter how young or old we are, or how much or how little influence we think we have, God calls us to boldly engage our upside-down culture through the lens of his truth.

With powerful examples from Scripture and stories from teens today and through the centuries, Sara Barratt equips teens to live with a biblical worldview, approach today's hot-button issues with godly wisdom, and influence their generation for the glory of God. Tackling tough topics like sexuality, addiction, identity, media, and much more, Sara offers practical ways to stay rooted in God's truth while engaging culture with the redemptive story of the gospel--no matter the cost.

"An extraordinary book. Sara Barratt clearly understands the appealing but deceptive cultural values that confuse and derail countless believers, who, apart from learning to think critically, will likely abandon their faith. Sara writes with rare wisdom and insight."--Randy Alcorn, author of Heaven, If God Is Good, and Deception

"A clarion call for students today to live out the worldview of Jesus in a countercultural fashion. Sara offers a bold challenge to this generation, and she equips them with the tools to do so. I highly recommend it."--Sean McDowell, PhD, professor at Biola University, speaker, and author of Chasing Love
