I really enjoyed seeing your E-magazine. I have never actually seen or read anything like it. Being a young person, I really enjoyed it. I know I have problems very similar to the ones you discuss. I do not like to talk to other people about my problems and, well, reading your magazine really helped me a lot. Many people don't understand how hard it is to be a youth and how easy it is for youth to get pressured into doing things that they know aren't right. But just to have certain friends or to be with a certain group, young people will do whatever.
Also a lot of people don't understand how things have changed
since when my parents grew up. Today things are different. I mean you
cannot even walk down the street without wondering if you're gonna
get jumped or raped. Thank you for your time and I just wanted to let
you all know you are doing great jobs and they really do help!

I found the current issue regarding virginity, cussing and abstinence
very edifying and helpful. I'm 15 and trying really hard to resist
and fight against sexual urges. Reading those articles helped me focus
on making sure I obey God's Word instead of giving in to sin.

Hi! I am 21 years old and I came across your Web site for teens. I know
I'm not a teen but I enjoy reading things like that! It helps me in some
areas that are confusing to me. Thanks for your Web site!

Editor's note: Actually, our desire is to address issues that are relevant for young people in their early 20s, too. We're glad to have readers in this age group and especially welcome your input on article ideas.
Thanks so much to all who put together the material for this issue.
It is very timely in the times we are living in for the youth of today
and very much needed. This valuable material not only helps those confronting
specific issues, but helps us young adults know how to deal with difficult
situations others are going through and to be there for them. Our hope
is that the youth then will make an effort to make a difference in their
lives. It's worth living God's way!!!

Thanks for the great article in the May/June 2003 issue of Good News magazine! The article was titled, "Choosing Movies and Music: What's Going Into Your Mind?" I recently became a Christian and have been wondering about this issue. I have never liked music like rage rock, heavy metal or anything with lots of profanity or sexual content in it. I have always listened to country music. I know not all of it is free of these things, but for the most part it is. Now if a song comes on that I don't want to listen to, I just turn it off or turn the volume down so I can't hear it.
And since I have become a Christian I have had questions about whether
the movies were OK to watch if I knew they weren't real and if I didn't
practice what I saw in them. This article helped to answer a couple of
questions I had. Now I am going to be more careful about what I watch

Hello! I just want to thank you for your reply to my "Ask Youth" question.
It really helped me understand more about God's desire for my life in
the area of clothes to wear. I really appreciate it! May God continue
to bless you!
