I worked with Tim as the editor on Life with Jesus—and I couldn’t help thinking that this sort of material would be perfect for the tweens and teens in my church youth group. It’s just the right balance between biblical (with a Bible study setting the agenda for each session) and topical (with a practical focus that feels real and relevant). All we’d need to do, I thought, is write new discussion questions and teen-oriented case studies, and add some game ideas—oh, and change the name of the chapter on sex and marriage to something that wouldn’t induce giggles.
I was soon trialling the youth version of Life with Jesus at my church in Chessington, south-west London—and sending it elsewhere for other youth groups to give it a go too. Then we got the illustrator Jason Ramasami involved, adding bespoke doodles that bring to life the teen-friendly versions of Tim's insightful teaching. The result is a simple, flexible, discussion-based guide that I hope will help both young believers and young sceptics to explore what it is really like to follow Jesus for the long haul.
