With Friends Like These (Circle of Friends)

Review\n"Lindquist draws the characters with skill and warm insight.... Strong moral values and common-sense answers suggested to address everyday problems youths face today." Christian Library Journal\n"I had to ask a 16-year-old whether N. J. Lindquist's Circle of Friends series of novels lived up to the promoter's promise that 'real issues and realistic teens' make for a compelling read. And without any prompting, 'realistic' was the word my young informant provided. 'It clarified things that I was doing wrong-and how to fix it.'" ChristianWeek, reviewed by editor, Doug Koop\n"These books are a great tool for sharing your faith and would be a great addition to your home library or your church library." The Old Schoolhouse Magazine\n"If you got the first book in this Circle of Friends series, you are going to want to get this one, too.... Life is not simple for teenagers. More complications, more relationship interaction." Crystal E. Miller\nEverything seems to be going his way, until it all falls apart. Can his newfound faith survive?
Glen Sauten is on cloud nine after discovering that the girl he’s liked from afar actually likes him. But when the football quarterback says the girl is his and threatens violence, the seventeen-year-old is torn. He has no intention of backing off, but he knows the threats are real. Relieved, he accepts his best friend’s offer to be his bodyguard.
When his new girlfriend encourages him to be friends with the quarterback and disparages his best friend, Glen is confused. He can’t tell her what’s really going on because she’ll think he’s a coward. But a serious car crash blows everything else out of his mind. No matter what anybody says, he knows the accident was his fault.
And every choice he makes tests his newfound faith.
