Embracing the Rebelution

Alex and Brett Harris, twin brothers from Oregon, wrote a book - Do Hard Things. This book is all about a new concept that is revelutionizing the way teens think today, a concept that Alex and Brett have aptly dubbed "the Rebelution". This book is all about teenagers rebelling against the low standards that society has set for them. So many people think that adolescence is a time to goof off, to have fun, and to be stupid before "real life" kicks in at age twentysomething. The Rebelution is all about how to change your thinking and embrace the potential that God has for you! Believe it or not, "teenagers" are never mentioned in the Bible. Paul writes that when he was a child, he spoke and thought like a child, and when he was a man, he left behind childhood and was a man. He does NOT say that when he was a child, he spoke and thought like a child, and when he was a teenager he was dumb, then he was a man. The Rebelution is basically about embracing the concept of doing hard things - striving for excellence in a world that expects so little. Realizing that "excellence" is different for different people - being "good enough" just isn't good enough! Alex and Brett have really hit on something I think is important in our society today. Teens have so much potential that just stays untapped because no one expects anything of us! I encourage everyone to go out and buy this book. If you can't, ask me for my copy and you can borrow it. Either way, read it! It's phenomenal and it'll radically change the way you see your teenage years. Wake up! These are precious years full of opportunity and capabilities that you will never have again. Use them!
