Do Hard Things


Do Hard Things by Alex and Brett Harris.
I just finished reading this book. I took it with to Africa and I was impressed by the message. It is great that two young people are challenging other young people to do more than the culturally low expectations placed on them. If all of our students would simply read this book I bet that our youth group would look and act much differently… My prayer is that as our students read this book they would catch the vision that they can do so much more than they currently are and that they would rise to the occasion.
The website that accompanies this movement is equally impressive… http://www.therebelution.com/
It is a website dedicated to young people who refuse to waste their teenage years simply writing them off as adolescence. If you cannot afford this book then simply browse some of the blogs on therebelution.com while you save up money for the book. Pay close attention to the articles on the ‘myth of adolescense’.
