Just for Tweens
My Name is Erin:
One Girl's Plan for Radical Faith
Maybe you've had a moment-a time in your history when God did something radical in your heart. Putting your faith and trust in Him certainly feels like taking a giant leap, but really it's just the beginning of the exciting, and-yes-radical journey that comes with agreeing to live as God calls you to.
What does being radical look like? In the Bible, the common characteristics are:
* They trusted God.
* They listened to God's voice and then obeyed-even when it cost them.
* Because of their faith, they lived lives that looked different from everyone else's.
That's a short list and a tall order, but basically it means you can be a radical too. There's nothing on that list that is impossible for you. There's nothing on that list that requires you to be older, or more financially stable, or to have a college degree. No matter who you are or where you live you can live a radical faith.
Meet Erin, she has learned practical ways to do just that.

My Thoughts
How can you spot a person with Radical Faith? What makes this person different?
Do you know anyone with Radical Faith? If so how do you feel about this person? How do other people react to this person?
Are you this person? Would you like to be a person with Radical Faith? You might have to remove a few things from your life in order to make time for prayer, reading your bible, journal and worshiping with song. Listen to God's voice and obey! Become a person with Radical Faith. This may come at a cost.
This is the perfect series for tweens. It is not over bearing or in your face. It is like getting advice from a close friend. A quiet friend with Radical Faith. She definitely has the plan! I am talking about the author, Erin Davis. She backs up her advice with scriptures, accounts of many people in the bible with Radical Faith.
I highly recommend this book.
