the like total complete new testament, with fun quizzes!
According to Reuters, Transit Books, the teen division of Nelson Bibles, is planning to publish "Refuel", a bible-zine for boys. Nelson already has a hit with "hip Christian" girls in the form of "Revolve", a mazagine-style repackaging of the New Testament that breaks up the dogma with blurbs a born-again former Cosmo Girl columnist might pen.
Here're some gems:
RELATIONSHIPS
"She should be without blemish" (Ephesians 5:27). Sorry, you don't get to blame your newest pimple on your boyfriend. However, if he is pressuring you to do anything you know is wrong, he's not treating you right. This can be trying to get you to sleep with him, getting you to sneak out on your parents, or even getting you to give him the latest gossip. Now, while your latest crush isn't supposed to fill the role of husband to you, if he's asking you to do things that aren't in line with God's commands he's gotta go. If you're dating, make sure he's someone who takes the Scriptures seriously. (page 42)
