God's best version of you is waiting. But first, John Ortberg has two very important questions:

Are you really living= full of joy and peace, in harmony with God, others, self; curious, willing to learn and experience opportunities to grow toward the Best Version of yourself;

OR

Are you decaying= lacking mental and emotional energy, feeling uneasy and not very content, too self-focused?

Ortberg has some intriguing answers to those questions in this book and will help you gauge your spiritual health and deal with real issues you face as a teen in today's world.

Underneath the "me" you pretend be (the one that acts cool while fearing you're not) and the "me" you fail to be (the one that doesn't always feel very excited about life) you will discover something remarkable.

The 5 sessions include:

1. Discovering the spirit

2. Renewing my mind

3. Redeeming my time

4. Deepening my relationships

5. Transforming my experiences
