No markings in book. "The world says you must find yourself, be true to yourself, and express yourself. Jesus gave us a different and better way to live." Most speeches addressed to high school and college graduates follow similar themes: march to the beat of your own drum and follow your dreams. Sure, this may sound uplifting, but Scripture commands believers to submit to God's will, not our own desires. In this collection of sermons and commencement speeches, Kevin De Young delivers a refreshing, biblical call to young men and women: serve God faithfully-and if necessary, counterculturally-in the next season of your life. Offering essential advice for every area of adulthood, including relationships, work, church participation, and spiritual growth, he helps Christian students reorient their identity and purpose according to God's truth. This will be the book to give to your graduating high school and college students. But please don't pigeonhole this book. Do Not Be True to Yourself is a brilliant and succinct call to all Christians to reject the spirit of the age in favor of the courageous Christian faith."
