With many decades as a Sunday school teacher and seminary and Bible study student, thirty-eight years as an English teacher of both middle and high schoolers in city and county public schools, plus sixteen years as a grandmother, Portia Turner Merriweather feels prepared, positioned, and privileged for the mission of training young Christians to seek biblical answers to all their questions.

This book gives them one easy to understand resource to consult when questions about life confound them. Since these questions were submitted by teens or those representing them, they exemplify actual areas of concern for them. Now, instead of reacting as the world dictates with its often misleading and destructive practices, Christian teens are equipped to apply scripture and to start building a solid biblical foundation.

Portia Turner Merriweather has used her skills as a teacher to write another resource for Christians, this time especially for teenagers. Her first book, Nuggets to Nourish Your Soul, was written for both new and mature Christians. Portia and her husband, Anthony, have a combined family of five grown children and fifteen grandchildren and share homes in Richmond and Petersburg, Virginia.
