    Price - $5.99

    WWJD (What Would Jesus Do) wrist bands have become very popular in the US - many teens wear their WWJD bands every day, but do they stop to really think what it means?  Is it like wearing a cross - just a symbol - something popular to do or does it really have meaning?  This journal for youth challenges teens to live for 30 days really focusing on what it truly means to live life the way Jesus would, doing what Jesus would do - no matter what!

Favorite Features

  • introduction really challenges teens to commit to 30 days of living life by doing what Jesus would do
  • provides area for kids to think through their expectations and goals for the next 30 days and to write them out
  • each day has a present day challenge, Bible study to help teens think about what Jesus would do in that situation
  • a "real-life response" challenges kids to live what they learn
  • space to write how things went that day
  • middle of the 30 day adventure helps kids look at how things are going and evaluate where their relationship is at this point
  • end of the 30 day adventure has space for teen to write a letter to Jesus about what went on during the month
    This excellent resource will truly challenge your teens to live like Jesus would in every area of their lives!  As parents and youth workers, we want to see our kids apply and live a life that is real . . . this is an effective tool to help kids do that.  Extremely well done Mike and Zondervan/Youth Specialties!
