What I liked about "Reflections: Prayers from the Heart of a 14 - Year Old Boy" is that it offers an honest, poignant and engaging look at growing up in a modern world where God and morality often collide harshly with what is considered "cool" or acceptable behavior. Michael Alexander Beas writes with an insightful and thoughtful voice, delving into teenage issues that we all faced as we find ourselves growing up and having to make the choice about who we are and the way in which we want to live our lives. It really is a great book that allows both teenagers and parents to get a solid grounding stone on God in a way that helps to suss through the daily mire of temptations and bringing out a moral and godly way of sticking to what you believe in and what you know to be right.The book is well-written with a down-to-earth writing style and a smooth pace, allowing you to really gain a wealth of knowledge, insights, wisdom and just a simple sounding board on the problems everyone faces in a world where God has taken a backseat. Overall, Mr. Beas did a wonderful job of keeping this book engaging and thought-provoking, creating an illuminating book that offers you the ability to grow and change in a godly way.
