Faith That Lasts

by Jon Nielson

Overview

Written as a response to daunting reports that Christian young people are leaving the church at a staggering rate, Faith That Lasts offers hope and direction to both parents and the local church. Jon Nielson presents much more than a step-by-step formula for parenting. Instead, he offers five gospel-centered principles, including modeling, balance and friendship. Faith That Lasts is essential reading for anyone who seeks to support lasting, authentic relationship between young believers and Jesus Christ.

Editorial Reviews

As a new parent, I'm daunted by the challenges and concerned for the future. What will my son make of these formative years? How will he remember his mother and me? Most importantly, how will he regard Jesus Christ and the church? I'm grateful that Jon Nielson--one of my go-to sources on youth and the church--has written this hopeful and helpful book about how we can encourage faith that lasts.

I've known Jon Nielson since we were eighteen and freshmen in college. What I have seen in the years since is someone who loves the church because he loves Christ. Jon writes with clarity and crispness, walking the reader through the issues and the solutions. He writes with conviction and doesn't beat around the bush. And, as he has for all the years I've known him, he constantly points back to the real gospel as the solution.

Barnabas Piper

Could there be a more tragic and dire trend for Christianity in our culture than that myriads of children raised attending church consider the church toxic as adults? Jon Nielson's new book, Faith That Lasts, is brimming with practical insight gained from his years working with high school and college students. This book deserves our full attention.
