Have you ever considered that Jesus could actually be walking alongside you? Like right now, in this very moment—even though you can’t see him. If you knew that for sure, how would it change your day? Your life? Because you can’t see or hear Jesus with your physical eyes and ears, walking with him takes a different kind of seeing and hearing. And as you learn to walk with him, your faith will grow, and your life will never be the same. Through a month of meditations, Drew Hill invites you to look for Jesus with the eyes of your heart and learn to hear his voice. As you encounter Jesus, you will begin to see yourself through his eyes. Alongside Jesus uses a daily devotional format, and each chapter takes a look at a different truth about Jesus and invites you to establish an “Alongside Practice” that will help solidify this truth in your heart. Each week includes a weekend conversation with your “Alongsider”—a parent, mentor, or friend who can help you process what you’re reading. These encounters with Jesus will help you see that Jesus is closer than anyone else could ever be. Alongside Jesus is the first book in the Devotions for Teenagers series.

“Devotionals for teenagers are notoriously difficult to recommend. They’re either trendy and biblically light or they’re so exegetically dense students have a hard time knowing what difference it makes to real life. Drew Hill’s Alongside Jesus is different. He invites students into the presence of Jesus and draws them into the biblical text while leading them to put it into practice. As a youth pastor and parent of teenagers, I cannot wait to get Alongside Jesus into the hands of my teenagers.” Mike McGarry, Youth pastor; author of Lead Them to Jesus and A Biblical Theology of Youth Ministry
