Real Questions – Book 2

The second book of honest, short answers for readers aged 13 to 17 to the questions teenagers ask about God, the Bible, Christians and everyday life. Each chapter starts with a short answer, then goes deeper, and ends with a question to think about and a classic to read next.

No. Each book and each chapter stands on its own, so you can start with whichever question matters most to you.

Thirty, in three parts: God and the Big Picture (who made God, the Trinity, the cross, evil, free will, the devil, the Holy Spirit), Faith in the Real World (hypocrisy, abuse in churches, slavery, women, baptism, communion, the occult, artificial intelligence, the planet, politics), and Life, Body and Me (porn, living together, body image, self-harm, divorce, forgiveness, guilt, swearing, tattoos and parents).

No. On questions where faithful Christians genuinely differ, such as predestination and free will, whether God still gives prophecy today, infant or believer’s baptism, what happens at communion, and politics, it sets out the main views fairly and says what they all agree on.

With compassion and without graphic detail. Those chapters say plainly that abuse is never the victim’s fault, that God’s love does not change, and that the reader should tell a parent or trusted adult straight away, especially if they are being hurt or thinking about hurting themselves.

Every Scripture is quoted from the Berean Standard Bible (BSB), a modern and readable translation that is in the public domain.
