A rebelution will be starting for Whyte Ridge Baptist youth in grades 8-9 on September 22nd. What’s a rebelution? In a single sentence…
A rebelution is a teenage rebellion against low expectations—a worldwide campaign to reject apathy, embrace responsibility, and do hard things.
Rebelution was started by Alex and Brett Harris. They started the movement when they were sixteen. They began with a blog which turned into their first book, Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectation, when they were eighteen years old. The book has sold over 400,000 copies, reaching as high as #5 on Amazon.com’s bestseller list and #1 under Christianity.
The Harris brothers wrote the book to help youth resist the cultural lies that limit their potential. They write on their website:
Kids everywhere were essentially being groomed for failure before they had ever been tested for success. Before they’d ever been invited to set their mind, will, and heart on making a mark for God in the world.
They believe the teen years are meant to be a season of daring, high hopes and real achievements. Do Hard Things draws from history, practical examples and biblical insights to help teens set a course for long term fulfillment and an eternal impact.
