"These young adults do indeed wrestle with the biblical text in the context of their own lives. Painful as it may be for some, this is a must-read for church leaders and parents of youth and young adults."--Richard A. Kauffman, Senior Editor and Book Review Editor, The Christian Century; and Senior Editor, Leader magazine

"This book presents the honest and sometimes raw reflections of young adults. Does Scripture matter? What authority does/should/can it hold in a post-ecclesial age? The writers share stories of how encounters with Scripture have shaped their relationships with family, friends, the church, and their worldviews." -- Regina Shands Stoltzfus, Director of Admissions, Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary
