GOD IS CALLING YOU TO GREATNESS. NO EXCUSES. BE READY TO ANSWER THE CALL.
As a young person, you have the chance to impact the future in a positive, godly way. The question is: “Are you ready for the challenge?” If you’re a believer in Jesus Christ, your calling is to change the world. All you need to get started is the desire to influence your country and church in a positive way. Home schooling and the strength of the Christian family is helping to produce the future leaders of our culture, those with the potential to lead decades of revival and national reformation. If you ignore the challenge, there is little hope for America. A lot depends on you.
So, here is the challenge: Grow up. Now. Get busy. Take responsibility to change this world for God, because that’s exactly what He expects you to do. Your life matters, and God wants to make your life great.
It won’t be easy, and reading this book, you may feel it’s being a little tough on you. There are high expectations and little allowance for excuses. Life isn’t easy, but strive to make it a worthy one. Pioneer missionary William Carey once said, “Attempt great things for God. Expect great things from God.”

I have just finished reading Take Back the Land by Rick Boyer. Let me clarify that--I have just finished reading it with my husband. We were both very impressed. Even though it is written to the youth (specifically the homeschooled youth) I feel that every home school parent should read this book as well. Packed between these 253 pages you will find the history of the beginning of public education and compulsory attendance laws in this country as well as an in-depth discussion of our constitutional rights as Americans and the state of the American church. It is deep stuff that packs a punch. It will help home school parents keep their focus. It will help us to remember the reason we do what we do and why it is so important not to give up. It will help homeschooled youth understand their heritage and prepare them for their role as the Joshua generation so that they can Take Back the Land.
I received this complimentary copy from New Leaf Press for this review. A positive review was not required and the opinions expressed here are my own.

"This is a book for young people. It was written because I believe young people are important and that they have a huge part in God's plan for the future of America and the Church. In fact, you are the future, and a big part of the present, too."-Rick Boyer, The Learning Parent
