Straightforward and spiritually perceptive, this book has the potential to change the way teens think. Authors Joyce Meyer and Todd Hafer use contemporary and compassionate language as they explore the myths and mindsets that often trap young people.

Everything about this book was designed to appeal to the reader. Clever and intriguing chapter titles invite teens to take a closer look at what's inside. There is a steady progression of ideas, with the first one examining the role the mind plays in everyday living. Heartbreaking facts about teenage drinking, sexual activity and drug abuse prove there is no place to hide on this very real battlefield. Misguided thinking can lead to serious problems or even death. Yet, the authors show a clear and realistic approach to survive the daily onslaught of errors. Appropriate Bible verses cause these concepts to have authority, while various scenarios highlight the teaching and make it relevant.

The authors have a sympathetic understanding of the problems and pressures facing today's teen. Their words reflect their sensitivity, while also providing a sense of urgency. After outlining the situation, they offer a sensible and spiritual solution. Contemporary language gives the centuries-old advice of the Bible a fresh new look, while retaining its timeless wisdom. A healthy dose of humor brings some smiles and nodding heads, as readers will see themselves in these pages.

Perhaps the guidance offered in this book is best summed up by one of the chapter titles: "WWJT Is Your WMD!" Curious? Be sure to get a copy of this book and find out more!
