Good writing for teens

I am getting continually frustrated trying to find good Christian devotionals for the teens in my family and at my school. Many are quick-to-publish journals, with little of no real spiritual meat. Others are so heavy-handed with wordiness that the readers get worn out trying to dig for the point of the lesson.

If anyone has a good straightforward Christian book they've read - not just heard of - I would love to hear from you.

Right now I am working with two publishers on some devotionals and other Christian teen material, but in the meantime, I keep searching for powerful stuff, and I find more celebrity-driven material than straight-from-the-heart writing.
