10 Questions About Growing in Christ: 30 Devotions for Kids, Teens, and Families
Written Especially for Ages 8–14, This Devotional Tackles 10 Important Questions About Growing in Faith
Everyone has questions about religion, but when you’re young, finding the answers can be difficult. Some books are too complex and others don’t dive deeply enough into the faith topics that matter most to kids and younger teens. So where can young readers go to grow in their understanding of God and his word?
The 10 Questions series invites children ages 8–14 to investigate spiritual questions and provides reliable theological and practical answers on their level. In this volume, professor William Osborne explains that being born again is only the beginning, and he answers questions about growing in faith, including “How does prayer help me grow as a Christian?” “How do I handle feeling that I’m not good enough?” and “How do hardship and sadness affect my growth as a Christian?”
Each 10 Questions book presents 10 vital questions about one important topic, exploring each question in 3 short devotions. Kids can work through the 30 readings in any order they choose. Written to be read alone or with family, 10 Questions About Growing in Christ is the perfect way for middle-grade readers to start or end each day reflecting on the things of God.
- Faith-Building Devotional for Kids and Teens: With 30 devotional readings, prayers, and reflection questions, this book makes a great supplement to regular Bible study
- Comprehensive: The 10 questions range from the content of the Bible to the experience of living out your personal faith
- Flexible: The 10 questions can be read in any order—alone or as a family

“10 Questions About Growing in Christ is a practical, biblically grounded devotional designed to help tweens develop spiritual habits such as prayer, Bible reading, and involvement in their local church.

This book is a valuable resource for parents and youth leaders dedicated to discipling and raising future leaders.”

“I love good questions because they invite us to wrestle with God’s word in a way we otherwise wouldn’t. They take us deeper into the heart of God for us as his people. They challenge us to think in new ways. They show us the beauty of the gospel, and how it applies to our everyday lives and relationships. That’s what this devotional book from Osborne does. As a pastor, I am always looking for biblically solid, gospel-centered, thoughtful, and practical devotional books that I can recommend to our church. This devotional book for kids, teens, and parents is all those things. Read it with your kids; your family devotional time will be deeply enriched!”
Wes Simmons, Senior Pastor, St. Andrews Presbyterian Church
“Christian families will find this devotional engaging and relevant, especially for elementary-aged children and young teens. By pairing helpful “keyword call-outs” with carefully chosen Scripture in each reading, Osborne invites parents and kids to explore together what it truly means to grow in Christ. 10 Questions About Growing in Christ is a clear, relatable, and practical resource for families seeking to deepen their faith.”
Kelly Coy, Director of Children’s Ministry, Parkside Church
“I’m grateful for this little book. Osborne gives profound instruction in short, practical, and readable chapters that guide teens to understand the nature of true faith, new birth, fighting sin, and staying close to God and his people. I was constantly thinking of my own teenagers and the teenagers in my church community as I was reading and am excited for them to have this book.”
John Starke, Lead Pastor, Apostles Church Uptown; author, The Possibility of Prayer
