ANONYMOUS WRITES: How can I be a blessing to my teachers? I work hard and I try to interact positively with them, but what are practical things I can do to encourage them or witness to them? I’d love to hear from home-schooled students, public schoolers, college students. I have multiple professors, but my brother’s still homeschooled. How can we make the most of our year by building...

MADISON WRITES: My church reaches out to the community by doing bible studies and evangelism series, but we don’t really get involved out there. After reading Do Hard Things, I want to help my church get out into the community, but I don’t know what to do. Any suggestions?

KAREN WRITES: Is it alright for us, Christians, to admire or look up to celebrity icons? Not the ones you may think.

Moreover, they are neither “godly” nor “worldly” in a sense. As with music, these...

AUDREY WRITES: I just created a budget for myself using an envelope system. This is the first time I have tried a strict budget and I am open to advice. Have any of you found any budgeting techniques or systems that have worked well for you? How do you keep yourself from breaking your own system? Do any of you do a clothing allowance where your parents give you a certain amount of money and you...

KATIE WRITES: How do you evangelize to someone who has already rejected you? I have a friend in high school who has a lot of twisted misconceptions about Christianity. One time I talked to him about it and he shut me down completely. I’m mad at myself for pushing Christianity so hard on him, but I don’t know how to go about talking to him again. I feel like I’ve blown my one...
