CHRISTIAN FAMILIES ARE NOT IMMUNE TO TEEN TRAGEDIESThe reality of this struck the Rebsamen family on May 23rd, 2002 when 14-year-old Aaron Stephen Rebsamen took his own life. Aaron’s dad, Bill Rebsamen, reflects on the creation of the Get Serious Project. “We were like so many other Christian families, sure we were dealing with typical teenage boy problems but nothing of this nature ever crossed our minds. In the wake of Aaron’s death I found myself seeking answers in prayer, God’s Word, family, friends and church. During many sleepless nights I searched the Internet for information, statistics and other survivors of teen suicide. The Get Serious Project web site is intended to be a resource for parents, family, friends and young people alike who are dealing with Teen Tragedies.”
