What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

Dear teenager, you are not too young to study the Bible for yourself. It’s not too hard, too overwhelming, or too confusing. Instead, it will give you everything you need for life and godliness and the deepest joy you can imagine. That’s the message of Transformed by Truth—and that’s a message I’ve personally seen lived out in the life of Katherine Forster. Teens, you need to be transformed by truth. It happened to Forster, and in this book, she shares how it can happen to you too. Her writing is accessible, relatable, theological, and highly practical. She’ll change how you view the Bible and increase your love for Christ. Transformed by Truth is a must-read for the Christian teen.”
Jaquelle Crowe Ferris, Founder and COO, The Young Writer; author, This Changes Everything

“Convicting, informative, and extremely practical! This book takes you through the who, what, when, where, why, and how of Bible study in a fun and relatable way. A valuable resource for all Christian teens (and adults)!”
Hannah Leary, Cohost, National Bible Bee

“Christian teens are often embarrassed to admit that they’re unsure how to study the Bible—or worse, that they find the Bible boring. With relatable candor and honesty, National Bible Bee champion Katherine Forster goes toe-to-toe with many of the common threats to a teen’s biblical literacy. Transformed by Truth is filled with solid encouragement and practical tools for teens hoping to develop a joyful dependence on God’s word.”
Lindsey Carlson, author, Growing in Godliness: A Teen Girl’s Guide to Maturing in Christ

“This book will inspire you to not only begin memorizing the word of God, but also to pursue a closer relationship with the person of God.”
Michael Farris, President and CEO, Alliance Defending Freedom
