Garrett's Books

Available in both paperback and ebook!

Navigating life as a teenager can be hard. Even as a Christian teenager. It can be hard, challenging, confusing, and filled with a lot of questions, insecurities, and doubts. How do I fit in? Why can’t I look more like that person? What college degree am I supposed to get? I wish I were more smart, funny, athletic, popular, attractive, confident


This short devotional-style resource provides seven timely and relevant biblical truths every teenager needs to know that will help you more purposefully navigate your teen years. Here’s a sample of what we’ll talk about:

  • Not conforming to the world and culture
  • Identity and worth
  • Anxiety and mental health
  • God’s unique purpose and plan for you
  • Peer pressure and fitting in
  • The use of social media

If you’re a teenager, you might not be thrilled at the thought of reading a thick 300-page book. That is how I felt as a teen too, and that’s why I wrote this short seven-day devotional packed with biblical truths to help you with the things you struggle with most.


These seven truths were written with you in mind.

Available in both paperback and ebook!

“When anxiety was great within me,
Your consolation brought me joy.”

Ps 94:19 NIV 

It says in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 that God’s power is made perfect in our weaknesses. Isn’t it comforting to know that it’s okay to be weak at times? And that God is actually most present, most evident, and most near to us in our brokenness and weaknesses? I have always taken great comfort in this verse throughout my personal struggles with anxiety, fear, worry, and depression – my ‘weaknesses’. 


It is my hope and my prayer that this 21-day prayer journal encourages you, comforts you, and shows you that God is near to the broken and He’s fighting for you. 21-Day Prayer Journal for Anxiety & Depression includes bible verses and specific prayers that I’ve clung to over the years. I still pray many of these prayers and verses daily.

  • “Pain from our past and fear of our future can sometimes lay siege on and paralyze our lives. This devotional won’t cure you, deliver you, or save you from your anxiety and depression. But it will point you to the One who can.”

  • “Where was this when I was in middle/high school? Where was this when I parented my kids through their school years? At least I have it now. This devotional identifies the core wrestling we all do, and it beautifully points us to anchor our hearts and lives in Jesus in the midst of these wrestlings. Garrett is tenderly honest and necessarily direct while dealing with difficult subjects. This is a must read for every teen. And then it’s a must reread for every teen as well!”

  • “Life can be challenging for modern teens who are attempting to navigate complex relationships, feelings, and pressures that come with social media and expectations from society. Yet, there is hope for all young people who choose to seek purpose and meaning in life through a relationship with Jesus. In this excellent resource for teens, Dr. Garrett Nogan provides practical solutions straight from the Bible for teens to apply to their lives. This helpful book offers an invitation into something beautiful that all young people can experience. I will encourage the young people in my life to read it regularly to remind them of the promises and opportunities that the Lord presents to all of us.”
