Hi everyone, first time posting on these forums though I have read through alot of threads and posts on certain issues and questions I have.
However, my sister now 14 is experiencing a thirst to grow in her own faith and doesn’t know where to begin. She’s read a majority of the Old testament but has barely touched the New testament which practically is a gold mine of knowledge for her spiritual growth
I however want to supplement her bible reading though with something devotional because there are alot of concepts and ideas she won’t get at the moment (I go to a trans-denominational Christian University) so its much harder for me to give her my own resources which are purely academic. Im looking for something easy to approach but very deep. My book store is full of teen-life type things which I know are a little below my sisters spiritual maturity level and does not really contain the richness of Catholic faith and thought in their books for teens because of the nature of the University. Im hoping for books written by saints, or compilations of spiritual ideas based off the writings of various figures of faith – nothing like “Jesus Christ loved everyone so you should love your own body too”.
If anyone has any theologically deep, but approachable for teens type book in mind for devotions please let me know.
Thanks in advance for all your help.
