Alone: Finding Connection in a Lonely World - Softcover
Despite hundreds of Instagram friends and thousands of text messages, why do students feel so alone? It’s a sad irony that today’s students have never been more connected―and have never felt more isolated. Andy Braner believes the answer lies in showing students how to build real and lasting community that’s centered on God’s love and grace. An important and essential read for parents and modern youth workers, Alone helps you learn how leading healthy students begins with a solid understanding of gospel community and mission.

From the Back Cover:
Today’s teens live in a networked world filled with opportunities to connect, share, and experience community. But despite Facebook friends and 10,000s of text messages, the majority of youth today feel disconnected, unfulfilled, even depressed.
Here’s the sobering situation:
- Students don’t know what to do about their own future. They fail to understand their gifts and how to discover how God wants to involve them in his story.
- Students live in a world filled with darkness. The culture around them draws them away from God and His love.
- Students don’t feel that their friends really care about them. They often feel used and neglected.
Author Andy Braner has worked directly with students on issues of identity, sexuality, depression, family, and faith. In Alone, he raises real issues and deals with them head-on with practical, biblical counsel.
This is an essential read for anyone raising or working with tweens or teens. The issues are complex, but more than ever students need leaders who will point them to God’s love and grace.
