Perhaps, but it depends on the child. I was reading adult apologetic books at about that age. CD’s on topics might actually be a good way to engage a child of that age. (In the car would be a good place to listen, captive audience
). Some 13 year olds have just as hard of time knowing how to pray as they do reading a tough book. I would say, she needs something that reframes the faith for her. Her old understanding of the faith is no longer sufficient to carry her, with her crazy teenage brain (and I mean that in the nicest possible way).I remember I started questioning because I know longer understood those long used platitudes used in Church and religion class. My biggest stumbling block, and the one that made it all click again once I figured it out was “Jesus died for our sins.” I couldn’t understand what that meant or how that worked. So I had to go back to the beginning and relearn about our salvation history. It is just weird how when we become teenagers, things we understood or took for granted as a child, no longer make sense.
