Lars Rood is the Family Life Pastor at Bellevue Presbyterian Church in Washington state. A longtime youth pastor, he loves building relationships with students and families and helping them engage with faith in new and deep ways. Lars is a popular speaker at youth conferences and has been blessed to write this series of books that seem to really connect with students. Lars went to school for a long time and ended up with degrees from Seattle Pacific University, Fuller Theological Seminary, and George Fox Seminary. Lars has three kids: Soren (8th grade, Kaije (6th grade), and Anneliese (3rd grade). So the content of these books isn't theoretical. He's living it day to day as he loves and cares for his kids and family and encourages them to grow.
