We love Rick Warren's book, "A Purpose Driven Life" for discipling our youth. Day 24 of this 40 day devotional is entitled, "Transformed by Truth" and Rick says:
"The Bible is far more than a doctrinal guidebook. God's Word generates life, creates faith, produces change, frightens the Devil, causes miracles, heals hurts, builds character, transforms circumstances, imparts joy, overcomes adversity, defeats temptation, infuses hope, releases power, cleanses our minds, brings things into being, and guarantees our future forever! We cannot live without the Word of God!"If you have kept track of recent news events then you know that violence in El Salvador has skyrocketed.
