Hello everyone! We have an exciting new product for teens offered by Catholic Sprouts. It is a book that can help your teen to develop Holy Habits.
Habits Employed By the Saints as They Pursued Heaven
Holiness doesn’t happen by accident. Neither does academic achievement, physical fitness, healthy relationships, or professional success.
We move closer to these goals (and our ultimate goal of heaven) by adopting and practicing the right habits.
Holy Habits for Catholic Teens shares over 200 habits that helped the Saints reject sin, build God’s Church on earth, and become the person God had created them to be. We hope that Catholic Teens can use this resource to understand further the role holy habits will play in their spiritual journey.
More Than Just Another Habits Book
Holy Habits for Catholic Teens is different.
Instead of packaging up the same (tired) tips for establishing good habits, this book looks to the Saints for inspiration. Inside Holy Habits for Catholic Teens, you will find the stories (and faces!) of 53 incredible saints. Teens are encouraged to learn about their struggles and model their lives after the Saints.
Holy Habits for Catholic Teens will remind your teen that the goal is not just to become an adult, but instead, to grow into a true disciple of Jesus Christ.
Habits For The Whole Person
Although our teenagers may look like adults, many lack many of the essential skills or habits required for adulthood. Instead of lecturing them, let’s inspire Catholic Teens with the help of the saints.
Holy Habits for Catholic Teens addresses EVERY PART of a Teen’s life. Here are a few highlights from each section of Holy Habits for Catholic Teens:
SECTION 1: WHAT IS A HABIT
- How can I break bad habits?
- How can I establish habits that will make me holy?
SECTION 2: PUT GOD FIRST
- How can I discern God’s will?
- What simple habits will make prayer a natural part of my day?
SECTION 3: FIGHT SIN
- How do I fully repent for my sins?
- What habits will surround me with God’s protection from sin and temptation?
SECTION 4: TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF
- How do I care for the health of my body?
- How do I groom myself and care for my appearance?
- How do I deal with stress?
- How do I keep my space clean and possessions organized?
SECTION 5: BECOMING A YOUNG ADULT
- How do I manage my schedule and commitments?
- How do I manage money as a Christian?
- How do I deal with failure and discomfort?
SECTION 6: OTHERS
- How do I apologize and offer forgiveness?
- How do I build good Christian friendships?
- How does a Christian date and discern marriage?
- How do I share my faith with others?
- Each section offers teens a variety of habits that they could adopt today. And, since the habit is directly drawn from the life of a Saint, teens will see how this habit will make them holy.

Book + Course

Each week, Nancy will be joined by a special guest. Together they will teach and discuss a specific section of Holy Habits for Catholic Teens. After listening, teens will understand better why establishing this type of habit is so transformative. They will also understand which habits are best suited for their unique life and personality.
