This is the first of a series of three books of motivational talks for boys, “Boy Zone 1”. Originally commissioned by the Boy’s Brigade in New Zealand, these books have already been widely used and are now fully up-dated and available internationally in ebook formats.  The book includes thirty short talks, each one begins with a visual aid followed by an illustration and application and a bible passage.  Further information and follow up ideas are also provided.  The themes and topics of the talks are contemporary for boys in our world today while being based on bible passages from Daniel, Psalms, Mark and Galatians. From hamburgers to chocolate, sports to computers, these punchy, relevant, motivational and inspirational talks are full of appeal for boys.   For the leaders preparing and using these talks, there is minimal preparation required and they make a great start to a group gathering.  While written specifically for wider group settings, these motivational talks could also be used in family devotions.
