Plugged In: Connected to the Source A 10-Flex Devotional for Teens Who Want Real Faith, Real Power, and Real Purpose Faith isn’t boring — it’s electric . Plugged In: Connected to the Source is a 10-day devotional designed to help teens experience a real relationship with God — one that makes sense in their world, in their language, and in their generation. Co-authored by Norman Thomas and his teen children, Aaliyah (14) and Jason (13) — both honor roll students, authors, and active in youth ministry at The Church Without Walls (Rev. Ralph Douglas West, Pastor) — this devotional speaks directly to what young believers face every day: peer pressure, comparison, temptation, and the struggle to stay focused on faith in a world full of distractions. Each “flex” (day) of Plugged In gives teens the tools to: • Understand what it really means to give your heart to God — no filters, no fake stuff. • Discover how walking with Jesus isn’t punishment… It’s power. • Learn why tithing, prayer, and purpose still matter, even in a digital world. • Build healthy friendships and stand strong when everyone else is folding. • Find subtle, authentic ways to share Christ without “preaching” to their friends. Packed with humor, pop-culture references, real talk, and relatable scriptures, this devotional doesn’t talk at teens — it speaks with them. It’s designed to make readers laugh, think, and grow while realizing that being a Christian doesn’t mean giving up fun — it means finding real life in the Source of all power. Every page helps teens recharge their faith, strengthen their confidence, and stay connected to the God who never logs off. Perfect for: • Youth groups and teen Bible studies • Family devotion time • Christian schools or summer programs • Any young believer who wants to grow in faith without losing their edge
