This New Life, like Sheila's other book, is humorous whilst dealing with serious subjects such as not judging others, and the difficulties involved in standing up for what you believe when the people around you don't think the same way - which isn't easy, especially for young people. The book may also appeal to anyone who has been the "new kid" in school.
"This New Life
It's not easy, following Jesus. How are you meant to deal with difficult people? The awful Stacy turns up in Sammy's life, and our heroine soon finds herself in the middle of a testing time. For a start, Sammy's got her eye on a nice boy, but Stacy ruins that budding friendship. Sammy finds out that living God's way is more than words. You've got to do it as well! Following Jesus through the hard stuff can be tough; we have to learn to trust Him, and trust that He will give us His power to live for Him. It's a book that again deals with the reality of living for Christ."
