I had lost my copy of “Real Teens, Real Issues” sometime this school year. I had kept it on a shelf at the back of my classroom. Students occasionally borrowed it so I thought I a student had borrowed it and then just forgot to
return it.

Then today I saw one of my students, Nick, reading it. I didn’t say anything because he was, one, reading and two, he was reading your book. Then the teacher next door came in and asked Nick if he was finished reading. Come to find out, my book had made its way to his classroom. He found it, read it, thought it was wonderful, and started assigning sections to students to read.

I gave him a short description of you and your testimony. I gave him the address for this website. Maybe he will get more of your books and assign more of your stories. :>)

Thanks for letting the Lord use you,

Joy C., high school teacher

I just finished reading your book, “The Woman I Am Becoming”. It’s weird how things work out. I was actually at an airport and I thought I would pass time by browsing through one of the stores. I found your book on the inspirational stand and for some reason I thought “I need to read this book”. And I’m glad that I did.

I’m a second year in college away from home. I’ve been struggling to find a bible study group, as the one on campus is small and unsteady. This also effects finding a community. All my close brothers and sisters are back home and due to time difference it’s hard to communicate. Lastly, I just want to say that Chapters 8 thru 10 were great reminders and it gave me a new perspective on giving and makes me question how I spend my money. I just wanted to say thank you for writing such inspirational books.

God bless.

Hello, I know I dont know u and really dont know much about you but i was just scrollin down and desided to pick this website for some reason… I live in Texas but just recently moved to another city for school.. Im almost 17 and its been 2 years now that im a christian but 1 year that i’ve actually gave up my life and every minute of it for his glory… he’s saved me and i feel thats the least i can do! Going to school here is a struggle in my walk of faith because there are so much none believers here.. i know im here 4 a reason -not only education but to talk about christ and how he can save them to! It getz harder everyday so im asking if you can please pray for me and this school which has so much negativity. Thank you for your time.. May God continue to bless you.. Take care..

We get tons of e-mails and behind-the-scenes comments from teens here at RTF. I want to start sharing some of them with you, some of the 100 to 200 teens who visit this site every day. I’m not going to edit them or try to make them perfect (though I’ll not use any personal details like last name or where you live). I just want the heart of what teens are saying to be out there.

Will you pray with me for Guadalupe and his school right now? Put it all down for one minute and let’s join together and pray that God will help him in his faith walk, and that Christ will rock this school with God’s love and presence and revival.
