Parenting a teen is a frightening task. These are difficult years for the teen and the parent.
This is an excellent book on how to parent your teen with God' word.
Without judgement or condemnation it will show you biblical "tourguides" - men and women from the Bible - chosen examples of disobedience and subsequent 20/210 hindsight, or their holy productive lives. These real life examples are powerful when applied to the tough issues teens face today.
I liked the book because each chapter is divided in such a way it is easy to know what you are going to share and how to share it.
The parts are:
Gearing up: This introduces an item offering a clear biblical presnetation of its spiritual equivalent. Parents will be given practical advice for the journey regardless of what shape teens are in spiritually or emotionally.

I liked this book because not only because of how well it is organized, but how easy it is to use and easily applied. It gives you the tools to share with your teen. HElp both the teen and the parent. Very encouraging, no matter where you teen is at! THere is hope!
