But first, John Ortberg has two very important questions:\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eAre you REALLY LIVING? (Full of joy and peace, in harmony with God, others and self; curious, willing to learn and experience opportunities to grow toward the best version of yourself)\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eor\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eAre you DECAYING? (Lacking mental and emotional energy, feeling uneasy and not very content, too self-focused)\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eIn his usual style, Ortberg has some intriguing answers to those questions in this study and will help you gauge your spiritual health and deal with real issues you face as a teen in today's world.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath the \"me\" you pretend to be (the one that acts cool while fearing you're not) and the \"me\" you fail to be (the one that doesn't always feel very excited about life) you will discover something remarkable...\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThis Participant Guide is designed for use together with The Me I Want to Be Teen Edition DVD (sold separately) and includes discussion questions for individuals and groups.
