Faith Through Fiction Vlog Series – Putting God First

By

CatholicTeenBooks.com was founded upon the desire to provide entertaining Catholic fiction that can build your faith. With this goal in mind, authors T.M. Gaouette and Leslea Wahl have taken it a step further by creating the Faith Through Fiction video blogs. With these vlogs, we will dive into issues that teens face and present fiction that addresses relevant themes.

In this Faith Through Fiction vlog, T. M. Gaouette and Leslea Wahl are joined by fellow Catholic Teen Books author Carolyn Astfalk to discuss putting God first. As Christians, everything we do should be for the glory of God, and that includes the books that we read. We should constantly be bettering ourselves and finding ways to live a life that pleases the Lord. But in a world that focuses on our own happiness and successes, that’s often easier said than done.
