Story Behind the Book

A team of youth pastors approached Multnomah with the need for a visual pivotal-issues series for teens—something that would enter into their world and confront the stuff they actually think, talk, and wonder about every day. These products called for a “back of the school bus” feel. Kids don’t get spoon-fed answers; they simply get enough cards on the table to create their own conversations. Now youth pastors everywhere can’t seem to hand out enough of them!
Marcus Brotherton worked in youth ministry for nearly a decade before switching to writing fulltime. He holds a master’s degree in practical theology from Talbot Seminary.

good reading for my children  Sep 30, 2011
As you can see my books are for both my children boy and girl, I chose these books to help them with problems they both have, as you know our children think parents don't know what they're going through, the books I picked for them are a BLESSING. I am a single mom and good reading for my children's different situations was met by Bible Knowledge Bookstore. Thanks for being there!
 
Great Series for Teenagers!  Sep 14, 2006
I have a teenage daughter and this book was perfect for her. I read through it first before giving it to her and I really liked how the author talks directly to the teen. He talks their language and offers hard facts but keeps the book Christ-centered. I think teens still have a tendency to have short spans of attention and the variety of each page keeps them interested and allows the information to sink in. Congratulations to the publisher and the author, Marcus Brotherton, for presenting teens and youth workers with a new way of looking at tough subjects. I look forward to ordering the rest of the FlipSwitch series books.
 
get this for your teen or youth ministry  Sep 8, 2006
Put this book in the hand of teens who wrestle with the hyped-up message that sex is casual, means nothing, and there are no consequences. It's truthful, right where a teen lives, and it's easy to read in one setting. In fact, when you start reading you just keep on going because it's that real. Thanks for making a product that actually matters.

HEAT: a premarital sex book that will reach into the minds of teens  Aug 8, 2006
HEAT presents the facts and dangers of premarital sex in an informative and entertaining way using language and style that will captivate teens. The style of this book will keep teens reading till the end, most likely in a single sitting. Marcus Brotherton shows a real understanding of the thoughts that teens deal with. He even includes many quotes from real teens. This book lets teens know they are not alone and provides them with Christ-centered, thought provoking material that will challenge them to abstain from premarital sex. It provides facts and statistics about teenage sex and the realities of it. Talking to teens about sex is not easy. I would suggest this book to parents who are looking for a book that will truly reach their teens and impact their minds and decisions.
