Product Description

Some parenting books assume your teenager is every parent's dreeam-well behaved, strong in faith, and a straight-A stendent. Others imply that your teen is a living nightmare-always in trouble, without beliefs or values, and destined to work in a convenience store. Thompson knows that even within the same family teens may be hot, lukewarm or even cold, especially in their faith. Without judgment or condemnation, Thompson introduces you to blblicat "tour guides"-men and women from the Bible chosen as examples of disobedience and subsequent 20/20 hindsight, or for their holy and productive lives lived openly before the Lord. You'll be amazed at the powerful way these real-life examples can be applied to the rough issues today's kids face. Get the hope and help you need and bodly enter the wilderness of parenting teens with this survival guide.

Publisher's Description

This contemporary survival guide is a practical tool for parents of teenagers. Each theme-based chapter is led by a biblical "tour guide," with Scriptures that apply to a teen's life and their particular issues. Some of these tour guides provide insight by having fallen away from God; others are examples to follow.

At the end of each chapter the author poses a pertinent question to a variety of parents, teens, and youth workers, who each take a turn answering it from their perspective.

Whether your kids are rebellious and wayward or full of spiritual zeal, the principles in this book will help you develop or maintain a healthy relationship your teens—and with God.
