Jesus Freak

Michelle Stansfield's thoroughly conventional and middle-of-the-road life has just rocked. Michelle worked hard to have popular friends and avoid social ostracism, but her life is changed when she is paired with Penny Volocek-the Jesus Freak-for a class project. Penny looks, sounds, and lives differently from everyone else. Then, in a school confrontation, Danny Caliburton crashed into Michelle and Penny's lives. Danny was once an active member of church groups with Michelle, but now, he seems aloof and harsh. Is he another critic, or is there a deeper side to this tall, athletic wrestler? tells the story of how Michelle, Penny, and Danny navigate the contours of friendship, betrayal, and the complicated terrain of youth. They also discover the difference it makes to claim the title Jesus Freak as one's identity while growing up as friends and Christians.
