GoodBookStall Review:
Truth Unplugged is a series on answers and questions. Each question is based on a real question from a young person ranging from smoking to same-sex attraction. Due to its style this is not a book to read but to dip into as needed. To get the best out of Truth Unplugged will require some work. Because of its size it is limited to only a basic answer with supporting Scripture. Where contact numbers or websites are given for further help they are American. The problem is not the book’s but the UK market's reliance on books from America. While this book has a pastoral aim, the questions are suitable for use as a discussion starter or Bible Study. How would your young people answer the questions? What does the Bible say on this issue? In spite of the problem of an American book in a British market, Truth Unplugged is a useful book for a youth worker’s bookshelf.
