Review:

"Crossing by Faith contains sermons written about young people who live in an age of consumer culture, transcontinental media, and global marketing. These sermons bring a hopeful word to youth (and eavesdroppers of all ages), offering alternative visions of self, destiny, world, community...This collection benefits all preachers who honestly strive to name life's difficulties and who simultaneously seek to proclaim God's grace."
