Please let me know how I can purchase these. I think they are such great resources, and you kinda grow attached to the children. I'd like to see how they are faring now. Thanks!

We have our hunches and inklings, but as much as we want to talk about teenagers “being real” and becoming “authentic” no one seems to have laid out a clear model of how this comes about. Further, the implicit models we carry with us are hampered by assumptions that do not stand up to theological rigor.</i> This is an interesting and suggestive final paragraph. I love that you're picking up on the embedded concepts of truth in the rhetoric of authenticity. My first thought is that our <i>real</i> self is in Christ, who is the personal <i>truth</i>, i.e., the only actually authentic Self before God the Father. Christ is the only one who could ever actually be - and who was and is - the ideal toward which David yearned: the ideal of personal authenticity in the face of the glorious Father. And that, I might suggest, is because Christ was and is the only truly obedient Son. There is much here. I look forward to your construction as it develops. I hope you're doing well.
