About this ebook

"I am not going to apologize for speaking the name of Jesus . . . If I have to sacrifice everything . . . I will." ûRachel Scott

The Columbine tragedy in April 1999 pierced the heart of our country. We later learned that the teenage killers specifically targeted Rachel Scott and mocked her Christian faith on their chilling, homemade videotapes. Rachel Scott died for her faith. Now her parents talk about Rachel's life and how they have found meaning in their daughter's martyrdom in the aftermath of the school shooting. Rachel's Tears comes from a heartfelt need to celebrate this young girl's life, to work through the grief and the questions of a nation, and to comfort those who have been touched by violence in our schools today. Using excerpts and drawings from Rachel's own journals, her parents offer a spiritual perspective on the Columbine tragedy and provide a vision of hope for preventing youth violence across the nation.

Meets national education standards.

Its amazing how such a young teen could have so much faith and fight against the the evil that our teens fall in today. God put that child in this world for his reason, and that was to save millions of people..

This book encouraged me to do what Rachel did; To love the Lord, and my neighbors as myself, no matter what the cost may be. I picked up her torch and am not ashamed of the gospel, because of her. Thank you Jesus, for such an inspiration!
