LOST Lessons was written by Randy Johnson and David Rutledge. The book is well received and is reaching varied individuals. Young adults who are dedicated followers of Jesus Christ are learning to see media, Hollywood and even the world from a Christian perspective, while those who are not necessarily connecting with a church are seeing Jesus in a fresh way. Based on this success, the authors decided to write on seasons 2-6 of LOST, but with a twist: they involved high school juniors and seniors. Those, too, are well received; so fifty-four students came together to rewrite season 1 from a teen perspective.
