Well, Hello There!
Is it just me, or is it harder to be a Christian teenager now than ever before?
The goal of a Christian is to know God and to enjoy Him forever, but in today’s society that’s getting harder to do by the second. It’s even harder to do as a young person who has a whole life full of walking with God ahead of them, there’s just so many voices pressuring for your attention. So many messages with so many different things to say, everyone’s pining for your time, for your belief in their ideas, and so many of them aren’t even that biblically grounded.
In a world like ours, knowing how to best learn more about God and His word is a challenge.
Trust me, I live in the same world that you do, and it isn’t any easier for me. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to have a true relationship with God, solid theology, and a firm biblical worldview as a teen.
And that’s what this site is here to cultivate.
My name is Natalie Braine, and I’m a Christian teenager, probably like most of you. I first accepted Christ when I was four years old, and it’s been a struggle ever since to truly get to know God. I’ve battled with doubts and spiritual warfare since then, and I felt a bit like I was stranded in the ocean, with no one to turn to.
But then I opened up my Bible, and I mean I truly began to study it, and it changed everything. I realized what it means to have a real relationship with God, and it’s a burden on my heart to help others realize the same truth that I did.
Since then, I’ve started studying for my (hopeful) future career as an apologist under the help of my parents (one of whom has an MDiv and the other who is getting their Phd in missiology) and my personal research. I’ve also been trained as an evangelist through Child Evangelism Fellowship, and I’m a soon-to-be-published author in a Christian Teens anthology.
Theology is my passion, and it’s my goal to help Christian teens discover how wonderful knowing God can be.
My site is full of articles written specifically for teens to help them grow closer to God and understand theological topics. My articles are clear, helpful, biblically grounded, and relevant to Christians in the modern day.
But that’s not all I write! I’m also a fiction writer, and I write allegory with the same mission as my nonfiction, to spread grounded theology to the world through gripping, beautiful, well-written story.
You can get instant access to all of these things through my blog, and through signing up for my newsletter! They were both created for the purpose of helping people get to know God better, be that through fiction, nonfiction, or whatever the case may be.
There’s enough noise out there. It’s time for some clarity.
