Youth (and their parents, mentors, and leaders) are continually seeking adevotional from a mainline Christian perspective that honors them.Different than many youth devotionals, which use punitive language andthe context of purity, Cross Words is a devotional for studentsthat is engaging and realistic about their brokenness alongside God'sredeeming grace and forgiveness. It will help them walk through thedaily blessings and challenges of life, offering opportunities toconsider how their faith might be strengthened through thoseexperiences.

Each week offers a brief reflection followed by aquestion to ponder, Scripture, prayer, or quote to use as a dailytouchstone in the coming days, set in a format with open space for theirown writing and drawing. Using approachable wording that doesn'trequire them to learn a new language in order to understand thereflection will appeal to today's teens. Meeting young people where theyare on their journey, it can be used for personal devotion or ineducational settings, youth meetings, confirmation classes, missiontrips, pilgrimages, retreats, coffee shops, or with families around thesupper table.
