Book Reviews of Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations
Book Review: Excellent, Easy Read, Hard Message
Summary: 5 Stars
First, I think it's worthwhile to mention that I typically have a very strong aversion to anything nonfiction (and I'm a very slow reader). I say this because I finished the book in about 12 hrs over two days. Not only did I like it, I believe it's got a simple message that young people need to hear. It contains a vision that could transform this world for the better. It calls on teens to do hard things so their generation can reclaim the culture.
To answer some of the negative reviews, this book does contain Christian values. It never tried to hide that fact. The use of "like" did irk me for a bit, but childish jargon can be forgiven if you delve deeply enough into the message.
Excellent read... definitely a keeper.
Summary of Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations
Most people don't expect you to understand what we're going to tell you in this book. And even if you understand, they don't expect you to care. And even if you care, they don't expect you to do anything about it. And even if you do something about it, they don't expect it to last. We do. - Alex and BrettA generation stands on the brink of a "rebelution."
?
A growing movement of young people is rebelling against the low expectations of today's culture by choosing to "do hard things" for the glory of God.? And Alex and Brett Harris are leading the charge.
Do Hard Things is the Harris twins' revolutionary message in its purest and most compelling form, giving readers a tangible glimpse of what is possible for teens who actively resist cultural lies that limit their potential.
Combating the idea of adolescence as a vacation from responsibility, the authors weave together biblical insights, history, and modern examples to redefine the teen years as the launching pad of life.? Then they map out five powerful ways teens can respond for personal and social change.
Written by teens for teens, Do Hard Things is packed with humorous personal anecdotes, practical examples, and stories of real-life rebelutionaries in action. This rallying cry from the heart of an already-happening teen revolution challenges a generation to lay claim to a brighter future, starting today.
