Who Am I and Why Do I Matter? (Big Questions)

“Passing the faith down to the next generation can seem like a daunting task. Add to that the fact that Christians must also train the next generation to engage skeptics in our faith, and it can seem like an impossibility. This is why I’m thankful for Chris’s book, Who Am I and Why Do I Matter? He takes one of the core truths of Scripture and explains it in a way that middle-schoolers (and their parents) can understand. I can’t wait to put this into my children’s hands, and also encourage them to put it into the hands of their unbelieving friends.”

“In Who am I and Why Do I Matter? Chris Morphew answers two of the most important questions teenagers are asking today. While he writes in a manner that is accessible to those as young as pre-teens, the content is theologically rich and applicable for students of all ages. The chapters are quick, clear and easy to read. I’m grateful for this book!”

“With engaging stories and scriptural truth, Chris Morphew lifts our eyes and hearts to see God, who is bigger than our biggest questions. His rescue mission through Jesus will not disappoint us!”

“Chris Morphew is like Tim Keller for teens. In this short book, he tackles some of today’s tough questions with Scripture, wisdom and clarity—and just the right amount of fun to keep young readers turning the page. I cannot wait to put this book into the hands of my three children.”

“What an excellent series—seriously excellent! I am certain Chris Morphew’s chatty style, clear explanations, relevant illustrations and personal insights will engage, inform and equip tweens as they work through some of the big questions they and their peers will be asking. Rather than rattling off short, simplistic answers, the books allow the readers to question and unpack the evidence. I am delighted to see such great material being produced for those at a pivotal stage of life and have no doubt they’ll also be a fantastic resource for those working with this age group.”

“Recently, I asked my daughter what has helped her through her questions about the truthfulness of Christianity. Without missing a beat, she pointed to The Big Questions Series. Chris Morphew does an incredible job presenting key ideas in apologetics and Christian discipleship (think Josh MacDowell, C.S. Lewis, and Tim Keller) to young readers. These books are engaging, relevant, and pastoral–and I know they will strengthen the faith of many young people. They already have in my home!”
