Teens live in a time of lightning-fast change ... but the spiritual disciplines that equip them to thrive in a culture addicted to speed haven't changed one bit. Daily communication with God (also known as prayer) and time spent in His Word are an unbeatable recipe for steady growth in erratic, unpredictable times. Prayer and the Devotional Life, the newest addition to the Uncommon Youth Curriculum Series created by youth ministry veteran Jim Burns, helps to introduce these essential disciplines. Twelve sessions of youth-friendly Bible study will get your teens thinking and talking about the importance of spiritual practices, and guide them to make praying and Bible study part of their daily diet! Inside the book you'll find a special download link for additional reproducible student handouts and options for every session to tailor each study to your group's unique needs.
