I Dare You: Challenging Teenagers to Step out and Dare to Add Actions to Their Faith

By Cassie Holley

I remember playing Truth or Dare? while camping with my cousins or at birthday parties with my friends. We would do some pretty crazy bold things just to show we werent chicken. Growing up in church, I learned Bible verses and even memorized them. I knew what the truth was and knew Scripture by heart, but the dare part was missing. You see, a dare is an actionsomething you do! This Bible study is a twist on the old game of Truth or Dare. It goes through sections of the Bible, which is the truth of Gods Word, and then it dares you to act upon that truth. I Dare You puts action to faith and allows you to prove that you arent afraid to show others that you love Jesus Christ!

I’m overjoyed when I write. When I wrote my first book, my personal testimony, it was amazing to see God work in my life and other lives. I decided to publish my testimony first so that when God called me to write other things, readers could know my background before picking up one of my bible studies—which leads me to this book! God put this piece of writing, my very first Bible study, on my heart. God is so good, and he is changing my life through writing; I pray that my writing is changing others lives as well. I live in Kingwood, Texas, and I attend Liberty University as a psychology major. I want to become a Christian counselor and help people through addictions and the recovery process. God is first in my life, and I praise him and give him glory for all the wonderful blessings in my life. Second in my life are my parents and Thomas Laird; without them I wouldn’t be where I am today. And thank you to everybody for all your love and support!

TEENAGERS WHO TOOK THE I DARE YOU CHALLENGE

Don’t let the world distance you from God … how you speak reflects Christ. How you live reflects Christ. How you love reflects Christ … Be bold, and be strong in your faith! Great study!
