A Challenge to Do Hard Things


~ A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations


Do Hard Things, by Alex & Brett Harris is an excellent, thought provoking book challenging teenagers around the world to go against the cultural norm of low expectations and do hard things. This book is filled with real-life examples of teens who accomplished the impossible because they were willing to do hard things as they trusted in God to help them accomplish the impossible. The Harris brothers challenge teenagers to step up and do hard things by illustrating different categories of "hard things." They encourage teens not to be trapped in culture's mold, but to stand up and make a difference in their generation. "Do Hard Things is a must read; once you pick it up you will not be able to put it down. You will also be challenged to do stand apart from society by doing hard things for God's glory. God has not called Christians to cower back in fear, but to go forth in His strength pointing to Him. Don't waste the best years of your life thinking that you are too young to do hard things...through Christ all things are possible. Don't wait till tomorrow to begin doing hard things.
