Maddee Schrader, 16, RTF Staff writer and Suzie interview author Erynn Mangum, author of Miss Match!
Maddee: Congrats on your recent wedding! After writing so much about a single girl and her dating relationships, what is it like to be married?
Erynn: It is awesome! My husband, Jon, is my best friend – we have so much fun together. Thanks for the congrats!
Maddee: Are any of the characters in your books based on real people?
Erynn: A couple of characters are based on composites of different people I know – but there isn’t one that’s just based on one specific person.
Maddee: You say you love coffee, so what are your favorite three drinks at Starbucks?
Erynn: Oh gosh…Mocha, Caramel Frappuccino and um… oh! The Cinnamon Dolce Latte. That one is yummy. (more…)

According to our stats, a lot of people accidently find Real Teen Faith because they plug in a few keywords on Google.com to find teens and sex. They weren’t looking for a ministry that talks frankly about God and faith and real life, but porn.
Those keywords lead them here because it’s a teen site and we do talk about sex, but from a Scriptural point-of-view and we’re upfront about that. But something (or Someone) draws them to visit RTF. We’re glad that they do.
Maybe you are one of those people. Maybe you’ve snagged by the lure of Internet pornography. You hate it, but you keep doing it because it’s easy, because it makes you feel a certain way, or because it’s part of your secret life.
The truth is that any type of addiction can be overwhelming. Where do you begin if you want that part of your life to change? (more…)

This is what Lindy Keffer, reviewer, had to say in Plugged In about the movie Juno.
Excerpt: As Juno, Ellen Page is completely adorable. And wow, can the girl talk! She leads the cast through 92 minutes of rapid-fire repartee. (Think Gilmore Girls on prenatal vitamins.) Audiences have to stay on their toes to keep up, and even then, if they’re unfamiliar with what the film’s screenwriter Diablo Cody calls “teen speak,” they’re still likely to get left behind.
Speaking of teens, Juno is—if nothing else—a telling inside perspective on the new teenage sexuality (or at least the world’s version of it). All the old rules are out the window. Sex is just as likely to happen between best friends (or even near-strangers) as it is between those who are seriously dating. And having sex isn’t necessarily a precursor to the deepening of commitment. It’s just one of many complications to be factored in as teens are defining their relationships. (more…)

I am going on 16, and made a regrettable choice to give myself to my boyfriend two years ago. Although this is something I cannot take back, I have talked with my youth pastor about regaining my spiritual purity through Jesus. But I’ve never told my parents about this. I know that I never got any STD’s and I didn’t get pregnant, but it’s really hurtful to me having to lie to my mother nearly everyday.
We talk about sex openly and I have no difficulty lying about it. I told her recently that I was going to wait until marriage. In my heart, I feel that I will be waiting for marriage. But I know that if I tell her that our relationship will never be the same. I don’t think she could ever forgive me. Am I a terrible person to keep deceiving her, even though it’s better for both of us? - Alie (more…)

Free to Be Me is a compassionate, insightful site for any teen who struggles with questions about homosexuality, or those who are gay or lesbian seeking to find a different path.
Great information for teens (or moms or dads or youthworkers who love a teen who is asking questions about sexuality). Real questions, stories, and a forum where a teen can talk with others. Free To Be me is supported by Exodus Youth, a Christian organization.
Links to other great youth sites on this issue are:

I know sex is wrong, but I can’t stand it everytime when my friends tell me how good and fun when they have sex with their bf and say it is very common that people have sex b4 marriage. They tell me that sex is not wrong when you do it with your loved one even b4 you are married. Is it true?
