StraightalkYour Issues; Your Problems; Your Solutions
|
Problems! Like I don't have already and then my mates keep coming to me with all their problems to offload as well.
Well, two secs, let's have a look at these problems. you know the kind? - your girlfriend is doing some crazy diet and you're worried about her health; there's a party planned for the weekend and someone's bringing a crate-load of booze; your firends are pressuring you to step outside the law; you've got parents who drive you up the wall or step-parents who drive you crazy - and then there's brothers and sisters and the rest of your family and everything that goes with that; plus your parents sudden announcement of their separation and divorce... arguments... and other stuff.
There's just too much hassle to tackle these days.
But even if your girlfriend has dumped you, your teachers are onto you about cutting class and you know that things are going from bad to worse; God can help you deal with your problems - you have to change your ideas about who he is, though. His strength will give you courage to do what is right. Give your heartache to God and live life to full.
So for each issue there are solutions - some Straightalk will help you find them.
Each chapter of Straightalk details a teen-specific life or family issue with real-life discussion and prayer. Scripture verses give God's direct input to your problems.

I found this book very informative. Each chapter talked about a teenage experience. Each time I started a chapter, I couldn't put the book down. Ms. Stadler really seems to understand what the teen is facing. She offers suggestions for each problem. She encourages teens to talk to God to help them get through troubled times. Great Christian Reading!

As a father of 2 teens, I can relate to the problems that kids are experiencing in this phase of their life. This book really embraces each problem, offering teens ways to deal with life. I was impressed how with each problem the author turned to God for guidance and confidence in helping the teen deal with life. All teens should read this book!!!

This book is written in such a superb way. It focuses on many of the problems and situations of life which teens are faced with. The author analyzes each one, offering ways to deal with the problems. She even adds a prayer or thought at end of each chapter, emphazing how having faith and talking to God can help you find solutions.

This teen book helped me to get on much better with my 14 year old daughter. First I read it then I gave it to her. My daughter liked it very much. The writer has a real sense of what Christian teens experience.
