Books In Between

A place for beliefs in teen life

By Chris Gustafson

"Full Service" by Will Weaver

Sixteen-year-old Paul has led a rather sheltered life. His 1965 Midwestern farm is isolating, plus he and his parents belong to a small group of Christians who meet as a tiny house church, which is considered odd by his school friends who attend more mainline denominations in town.
