Young people today face unprecedented pressures and temptations.
Statistics related to suicide have hit an all-time high. To say that
many teenagers and young adults are in crisis is not an understatement.
They are exposed to influences that try to make death seem intriguing
and appealing. Sadie Robertson sees and understands that this is
happening and has written Live to illustrate clearly God's alternative.
Where the world offers death in the form of hopelessness, negativity,
loneliness, rejection, and other experiences, Jesus offers abundant
life.
Robertson has a keen understanding of the issues facing young people
today and knows that many are desperate for hope that they can live
with strength, confidence, conviction, and vibrant commitment to God.
The world entices daily with choices that lead to misery. Readers need
to know that it's possible to resist the draw of the world and follow
God into a life of fulfillment and adventure.
The book includes material on overcoming jealousy, finding confidence,
dealing with haters, waiting on God, living in victory instead of
defeat, discovering the power of words, and knowing how to tell the
difference between what leads to life and what leads to death-so young
people can make the best choices.
With a social media audience of more than 6 million, Robertson has
become the leading voice of hope, courage, and truth for her
generation. In Live, she reminds readers that there's a big difference
between being alive and knowing how to truly live. To be alive is
something that happens to you. But to truly live is something you get
to choose each day. As Robertson says, "When you truly learn to live
the life God offers, your whole existence becomes a verb."
Including full-color photography and high design, Live shows teens and
young adults through story and biblical truths how to enjoy a rich and
rewarding life by choosing God's way over the world's influence.
Moments of decision greet everyone. Some of those decisions are minor
and others are life altering, but all serve as stepping stones to
peace, joy, and fullness or to disappointment and emptiness. Robertson
is passionate about inspiring a generation to live with bold confidence
and faith every day.
Live releases in conjunction with Robertson's 16-city speaking tour. As
a speaker, influencer, and media personality, Robertson has enjoyed
sold-out events across the country on previous tours. A popular blogger
at LiveOriginal.com, the founder of a line of creative clothing, and a
tireless advocate for underprivileged youth, Robertson is known for
living out her message with passion and joy. Her remarkable ability to
relate to her peers encourages them to view her as a role model, and
her call for them to live uncompromised godly lives has gained her the
respect of parents, pastors, and ministry leaders much older than she
is.
