Why get this book

Fasten your seat belts: the teen years can be a bumpy ride. Dating, school, work, relationships, and a kid pushing against every boundary of childhood. John Bucka gives parents a one-stop check-up on priorities, values and expectations, a road map for guiding a teen who's growing up but still needs direction. It's practical and written from a Lutheran perspective for moms and dads who feel in over their heads. Honest note: it's aimed at parents, not teens, and the car metaphors run all the way through. Next step: read Proverbs 3:5-6 and pray for your teen before tomorrow's drive.
