Four high school students. Four different stories. One life-changing week at Encounter Camp. Aspen acts like a good Christian around other people, but on the inside, she isn't feeling it. She doesn't want to admit it, but her spiritual life is a wreck, and she needs this week away to refocus her attention on Christ. Israel's family has been burned by the church, so he got involved with a new one and invited his best friend along for the ride. This is his first year at camp, and he's not sure what to expect, but his life is about to get wrecked by the gospel. Emory seems like an average teenager, but she has a secret that no one knows. She's not willing to share it with anyone because it's so big. When will she learn to trust and let go of her past? Will she ever feel "worthy enough" for God to love her? Hosea has a firm foundation, being homeschooled and raised in church. But in the fall, he'll be leaving for college, his first time away from home for an extended period of time. He's scared, but he would never admit it. Disappointed with how his church treated Israel, he's been closed off to getting involved in ministry. Maybe this week is the encouraging reminder he needs that God is still working in his life. Join these campers and others on their week-long adventure to realizing God's purpose in and for their lives. || second book in the "Encounter" series ||

Sometimes, expecting something out of someone is the worst way to connect with them. Tin Tin Amble knows this all too well, coming from a family with a father who wants him to do everything but what Tin Tin wants to do and a mother living in fear that her marriage isn't scaling up to what she expected. Not to mention two younger siblings who he feels responsible for. Pressure's on to be perfect, but he's anything other than that. In school, he's known as the High School's photographer. He carries his camera with him everywhere and is definitely in the "in" crowd. Then the phrase "Do it, you won't!" is directed at him in particular and he snaps. In desperation to prove himself once and for all, he gives in to prank a girl, also in his Junior class, named Alivia. Little did he know that the prank was all part of God's plan for something more worth while than trying to prove who he is to a bunch of kids. {Started: 11.2.15 Finished: 3.31.16 } (PC: andrewling || Instagram)
