Description

Senior year is a pivotal moment in the life of teens, a time when young men and women are shaping their goals and hopes for the future and seeking spiritual guidance. Creating a Christian Lifestyle, a comprehensive one-semester course, addresses significant issues teens will face as they choose among the many life paths they may travel--single or married life, religious life, or ordained ministry. The text examines themes common to all those paths: identity and autonomy, love, communication, sexuality, friendship, creativity and learning, work, money and possessions, and suffering and healing.
Thought-provoking stories, poems, and personal examples lead students into discussion; engaging activities invite reflection, discussion, and journal writing. The full-color lively design and over 50 original artworks by students stimulate students' interest.

Ridiculous and Pointless Feb 06, 2012 By Lucien Vesperal
This is perhaps one of the most utterly pointless texts on the face of the Earth. If I could give it less than one star, I would. It seriously is that bad. Your time could be much better spent staring at a blank wall than taking a course taught from this book. The author is nothing but a complete blowhard who has absolutely no idea about anything. The text is nothing more than an old man's incoherent ramblings. For anyone to think that there is ANY educational value to be gained from this book they would have to be a complete blathering idiot. If you plan on using this book in a course, please save yourself some money and do your students a favor and just let them stare at a blank wall. I promise you, they will gain just as much, if not more, from doing that than they would from this book.

Misleading Aug 16, 2009 By flying squid
Unfortunately my son had to use this book for a religion class. As a Roman Catholic parent you should be very careful when reading this book. It contains only sporadic Church teachings. Instead it mostly reflects the author's own perspectives.

Creating a Christian Lifestyle Jul 22, 2005 By M. Halasz "Avid reader"
I am using this book for a class I'm teaching, and find it very real and human. I am teaching a young lady who is going into her senior year, and although it is geared towards this age group, I find it a little young.

great teachable text for seniors in h.s. May 05, 2000 By Dr. Carl Koch
I have used this text with high school seniors. It is superb, covering the key issues that seniors face in trying to shape a Christian lifestyle. The book is filled with wonderful anecdotes and hard-won wisdom.The teaching manual is equally superb.I have heard that the publisher is updating this book; I hope they leave it pretty much as is because it's terrific.
