Room 24 : Adventures Of A New Evangelist
$14.95Add to cartFive years after she graduated from high school, teacher, youth minister, and sought-after speaker Katie Prejean McGrady returned to her alma mater in Lake Charles, Louisiana, to teach freshman theology in room 24. In the early years of her career, McGrady’s hormonal, sometimes grumpy, and often confused students taught her what it means to evangelize. Her frequently witty and always candid stories-and the ten lessons she offers-will inspire anyone who works with youth in the Church today.
As she began her first year of teaching, Katie Prejean was eager to impart the Catholic doctrine she loves to her class in room 24 at St. Louis Catholic high school, but she was quickly rattled by the magnitude of the task, especially when she was challenged by a teen who said he didn’t believe. In ten brief and compelling chapters, Prejean shares humorous and hopeful interactions she’s had with her students that helped her learn that teaching them about Jesus and his Church is not as important as knowing them, loving them, and inviting them to know and love Jesus as a personal friend and savior.
Her frequent mistakes and occasional successes with her students taught Prejean how to evangelize young people by building relationships in joyful, humble, and prayerful ways. Likewise, Prejean determined that the power of inviting conversation, welcoming questions, and witnessing to faith through personal stories engages students and helps them fall in love with Jesus.
Features & Benefits
Katie Prejean has spoken throughout the United States and in Canada to crowds from ten to ten thousand at venues such as the Los Angeles Religious Education Congress and the New Orleans World Youth Day.
Prejean has been published in Project Youth Ministry and Catechetical Leader and has appeared on EWTN’s Life on the Rock and Bookmark. -
