Teens especially need to hear of God’s love for them, as they navigate through lives that are often stressful. Between school, friends, social media, and school activities, their lives are stretched thin, and they often feel lost and alone. 5-Minute Devotions for Teens provides a single page daily meditation for them to connect with God on a regular basis.
Each of these 100 meditations shares a Bible verse, a short meditation on the verse and life issue, and a closing prayer. They cover topics like overwhelm, temptation, disappointment, self-care, friendship, and loneliness, as well as many others. Kids can turn to the page that most speaks to their needs at any time, to find encouragement and Biblical support. Plus there is a “notes” section in the back, where they can record helpful thoughts they find in the readings.
Lots of adults have daily meditations they rely on when life is tough, so it’s great to see a Biblical meditation book just for teens. I highly recommend this book.
