 Great Book for teens and young adults alike! September 7, 2010
pastorjosh
I purchased this book for my in home discipleship class I have with some students in my youth ministry. As we have gone through the book it has really challeneged not only the students but me as well to "Do Hard Things" in my life and ministry. I would strongly recomend this book to teenagers, parents, teachers, and youth pastors alike.
Outstanding book. September 3, 2010
Robert F. Chambers
I have recommended this book to many people. It is not only great for teenagers but adults as well. I am a Christian Educator and I have written an article about it in our newsletter. I have given it to youth counselors to read. They all liked it and agreed that our high school and middle school youth groups should study it together, so I bought all of them a copy as well.
I believe Jesus Christ does call all of us to do hard things, and this makes the case for this very convincingly.
 Do Hard Things - Review August 31, 2010
David Bennett
The book Do Hard Things is a tremendous read, which can be used in multiple areas of life with different audiences. The fact that it's written by 17-yr old twins is amazing. This book should be required reading in middle school and then reviewed in high school. It's a great reminder that the point of life is not convenience but taking on tough challenges and doing hard things. I am the father of 3 boys and this will be required reading at they get older.
Hard Made Easy August 26, 2010
Greenstone (TX)
Time has changed so radically in the past six decades that were one transported to today from the fifties, when a top song of the day was Elvis Presley's "You ain't nothin' but a houndog," the thought might occur to reproduce the tune to relate to the youth angst addressed in DHT.
Refreshingly, the title challenge runs cover to cover with testimonies replete of life-changing efforts that springboard what society deems as the 'uninitiated' initiating breathtaking leaps into gargantuan projects that any of the seasoned/aged veterans of social war would kill to have their name above.
Endearing and searingly transparent confessions expose even the wastelands from which some of the champions of these chronicled events hale, encouraging every reader to get off their duffs and do something impossible.
Perhaps the most remarkable slant is that with all the publicity, this work is still new and fresh, as is the website that exponentially rockets this movement, to young and old alike.
One wonders what the father of these two, who in fact can be rightfully honored with firing this race to the stars, thinks about DHT himself. Perhaps the answer will be noted in his next book ?

A parent must read! August 24, 2010
Gayle M. Miller (St. Peter, MN)
This book is written by teens for teens about the low expectations society has on their age group. Honestly, I think this is a great book for parents, teachers and adult mentors. It helps us understand how we are really cheating our kids when we have little or no expectations for our children. I loved this book!
