No Parking at the End Times by Bryan Bliss, which is the story of a family that sells all of their possessions in anticipation of the return of Jesus. So we started discussing the lack of spiritual representation in YA literature. Not the big end time novels, but even those subtle references to the fact that many teens go to church regularly (whether or not it is of their own accord is another discussion). But the truth is, there are a portion of teens who do regularly attend some type of church or faith service. And almost all teens will wrestle with the big faith questions as some time in their life, particularly in the teen years which is a big period for identity exploration and questioning.
