Godly Parenting of an Angry Teen

This is abook about transformation -- transformation, sometimes sooner, sometimes later, of an angry, defiant teen. More immediately, though, it's about transformation of that teen's fearful, exasperated, and hurting parents.

There is no silver bullet that will transform an angry teen into a respectful, responsible young adult. However, there is a God who can transform us, the way we parent, and the atmosphere we allow to develop in our home. This book draws parents' attention to their need to pursue and be satisfied with God's glory, which in turn allows them to seek change in their teenager's heart. It shows parents how to reestablish godly family leadership and helps them to find the joy of the Lord -- even if their teen doesn't change.
