In this thoughtful devotional, Kyle Idleman invites you to address that behavior or thought pattern using three key elements: YouAwaken to the reality of your spiritual condition; you see yourself and your need for a Savior with brutalHonesty; and this realization leads to Action as you follow Christ's example.
Drawing on the example of the Prodigal Son, Idleman shows us why each of these three elements is essential to lasting spiritual transformation and gives us practical tools to live them out.

Shane turns sixteen that same summer, and falls hard in love with his first boyfriend, Alex, who happens to be HIV positive. Shane has lived for four years with his little sister's impending death. Can he accept Alex's love, knowing his life, too, will be shortened?
