Inside you will find eight Foundations for Your Faith fullcolor sections that are designed to help you learn about
the Bible, understand the Bible’s big story, meet Jesus
and know what it means to follow him, learn how to
share your faith with others, and gain practical skills for
living out what you believe.
Have you ever wondered what to do when
life gets complicated and you are faced with
making difficult decisions? These stories
will take you through a variety of real-life
situations in which someone must make a
decision, then point you to Bible verses that
relate to the situation. Each What Now?
also includes a Life Application note on
the verses it refers to. These notes will help
you learn how to apply the Bible and make
good choices in tough times.

As you encounter new experiences, feelings, and situations, it
helps to know that someone else has made it through those
very same circumstances—and survived! These personal survival
stories, collected from older teens across the country, tell
how they made it through the situations that you are facing
or may soon face. Each story includes a Life Application note
and additional Bible verses that you can look up to find out
more about that topic. (Note: When you look up these additional
verses, you will find a Life Application note or a What Now? feature
accompanying each one. Be sure to read those as well!)
