Young people with a flair for writing sometimes try to express themselves with nothing more worthy than themselves to express. It takes more than a study of journalism to write a good magazine article. It takes more than a study of methods to write a good Bible lesson.
虽然没有真正值得发表的题材，但备有写作天分的年轻人偏要写文章，但实际上，好的文章不能单靠写作技术捏造出来。同样的，讲圣经时不能依靠授课手段 （而要对圣经有深层的理解）。
有道理！那这样译怎么样：“擅长写作的年轻人有时会故意卖弄，为写而写”？

Phil is right about the context. The more you consider the context, the more "nothing more worthy than themselves" becomes only a figure of speech. It is more a commentary on these young people's lack of experience than anything else. It has nothing to do with them being self-indulgent or showing off.

似乎多半年輕人（不論有沒有寫作才華）都有過以自我為中心，活在自己的世界裡的那段時光？

是的。我那种译法可能发挥过度了。还是收敛一点好。谢谢你！

可能跟我的翻译差不多，有点发挥过度了，咱还是尽量扣住原文吧。不过我很认同你的观察，年轻人都喜欢炫耀，成天跟个雄孔雀似的：）

沒先說明白。本想提供點我腦子裡的畫面，倒無意建議用這兩句取代翻譯。畢竟，翻譯不是創作改寫。:-)
