Description: An exploration in which "the brothers tell about growing up in church only to realize that 'how things are supposed to be' had stopped working for them. So they set out to find what makes a young person's Christian faith stick--or not--and in the process, asked hundreds of other people, young and old, some really hard questions, like 'If God is real, then why do I feel empty?'"--Dust jacket flap.
