In a world where teens are constantly chasing after surface-level distractions, they're left yearning for something deeper--a joy that doesn't fade with the next trend. Grit & Joy: Help for Bewildered Families of Teens is the guide that helps parents and mentors step in and offer the kind of joy that comes from a lasting, authentic faith. Grit & Joy takes readers on a journey to disrupt the pace of life that's been draining us all. They show how we can move from the frantic rhythms of modern life to a pace that invites us--and our teens--to experience the joy of a life with Jesus. This isn't just about slowing down; it's about making space for the deeper things that matter. Through practical advice, powerful stories, and a blend of social science, brain science, and biblical wisdom, Grit & Joy offers a roadmap for parents and mentors who want to help teens build lasting, authentic joy. This book provides specific strategies for guiding adolescents toward a deeper, more meaningful faith--one that will carry them through life's challenges and help them thrive. Each chapter includes discussion questions to help adults model a deeper, more authentic faith for the teens in their life. These questions are designed to help families pause, reflect, and engage with the material in a way that fosters deeper understanding and connection. What's at stake? Teens who are caught in the trap of shallow living. But through this book, parents and mentors can learn to model a deeper faith--one that leads to joy and roots their kids in a lasting legacy.

Autorenporträt
Dave Rahn: After beginning his ministry with Fort Wayne Area Youth for Christ in 1972, Dave Rahn joined the faculty of Huntington University in 1985, where he taught youth ministry for more than two decades. With a PhD from Purdue and MA from Wheaton, his more than 100 published articles, essays, and books have often been based on original research. He's tried to make sense of adolescent influence, youth evangelism effectiveness, urban Indigenous leaders, and--most recently, as reflected in this book--explore how joy with Jesus is a faith authenticator for young people. Dr. Rahn recently retired as Youth for Christ USA's Senior Ministry Advisor, lives in Middlebury, IN, and enjoys being a grandparent of five with his wife of 43 years. Ebonie Davis: A veteran youth worker in the Maryland suburbs, outside of Washington, DC. She's a contributing writer on the NLT: Three Story Bible, and a research consultant on issues related to youth ministry, parachurch ministry, and church diversity. Ebonie holds a master's degree from Huntington University in Youth Ministry Leadership. She was a project member on Yale University's "Theology of Joy and the Good Life" research, funded by the Templeton Foundation. She enjoys exploring new places at home and abroad, with her husband of more than 20 years and their two teenagers.
