Why Christian Kids Leave the Faith
By: Tom Bisset
Why do people who grow up in Christian homes leave the faith?
Author Tom Bisset has talked with those who have left. With openness and honesty, he gets to the heart of the issue by asking basic questions.
Why did you leave? Was there anything anyone could have done or say that might have made a difference in your decision?
Yet this is not just a “why did they drop out?” book. The author explores four basic reasons for faith rejection and what you can do to help someone who is struggling with these issues. And perhaps most important, you’ll find insight and practical advice for communication the Christian faith to the next generation.
Christians know the heartache of seeing a loved one abandon the faith. Tom Bisset has talked with young people-and adults-who, through neglect or willful resolve, have abandoned their Christian faith. With sensitivity, he’s listened to their stories. Why do they do it? Could anyone have said or done something that might have made a difference in that decision? Teenagers are not the only ones at risk for faith “exiting.” Adults also fall away, and their defection is just as tragic. Bisset discovered four basic reasons for faith rejection, and offers suggestions that can help readers minister to someone who struggles with his or her faith. This book offers help and hope to anyone who loves someone who has left the faith.
