How Much Does One Life Matter?

Throughout the Bible, extraordinary tales of real people gives us examples of how to live--and how not to live. Many of these true stories are about people who were younger than you'd imagine--people just like you.

Think abou this: David was still a teenager when God chose him to be king. Jeremiah didn't let his youth stop him when called on to deliver God's Word to the people. Mary was still young when God used her for an incredible mission.

In Teen People of the Bible, you'll investigate the inside stories of young people who made real choices--some good and some bad--all with real consequences.
