Anger, anxiety, depression, drugs and alcohol, eating disorders, guilt and shame, sexual, physical and emotional abuse, same-sex attraction and gender identity, pornography, premarital sex, rebellion, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, bullying and peer pressure, social media, video games (some very violent), demotivation. With our teens subject to a 360⁰ barrage we need all the help we can get, especially in a world that shares few of our values and ethics… which is why this book is welcome for parents and church leaders.
Pursuing a Heart of Wisdom begins with three chapters setting out general principles: Planting Firmly in Biblical Presuppositions; Practicing (sic) a Biblical Counseling (sic) Process; Partnering Together in Community.
