The Seven Cries of Today’s Teens

Description

Family pastor Tim Smith and noted researcher George Gallup Jr. have been listening closely to the mixed messages sent out by today’s teens. What they’ve discovered is that if we can get past the externals — their hair styles, music, clothes, and even piercings and body art — we may be surprised to find a receptive generation that is: Eager for clear rules to live by. Spiritually hungry. Open to relationships with people of different ages and cultures and backgrounds. Willing to work for a peaceful, healthy world. Enthusiastic about helping others. This cutting-edge profile of the Millennial Generation shows us that our adolescents not only need adult guidance, they want it! In the current design-your-own-morality culture, our teens are pleading for our mentoring. This book is an accessible, unintimidating guide that will allow you to interpret what your teenagers desperately want you to hear, so you can respond and make a new connection with them, beginning today.
