In a soundbite world, teens need to be taught to talk more deeply One hundred adaptable discussion starters provide a brief story, usually factual, followed by a series of provocative questions. Each story explores a topic pertinent to young people, such as drugs, truancy, or parental relationships; or an important biblical concept, such as giving, the afterlife, or love. The questions begin with general issues before moving on to what the Bible has to say. Extra questions are included for use with unchurched young people. The last twenty-five discussion starters provide a journey through the main stories and themes of the Bible.
With its attitude of fearless exploration, and the tools for discussion provided throughout, The Ideas Factory is a priceless resource for youth leaders.
