This Seat's Saved
Class schedules, locker combinations, and the play for popularity -- middle school is a new world with new rules.
At the start of 7th grade, Elita Brown's friends enjoy their seats at the popular lunchroom table. Meanwhile, Elita hides in the bathroom. This is not how she envisioned middle school. And her omission from the popular table is only the beginning of her problems. What will she do when she's terrorized by the meanest girl in school and accused of a crime she didn't commit? Elita befriends an older couple living in the woods and gains confidence through her project on the red fox. Will Elita find her way and take her seat at the best table? Full of suspense and divine moments, readers will be captivated by this story.
Parents and teachers who loved Seated with Christ can invite their middle school reader to This Seat's Saved. With great discussion questions and a main character who learns to read her Bible, trust God for the first time, and understand what it means to be seated with Christ from Ephesians 2:6, This Seat's Saved will help young readers on their journey with Jesus.
