I didn't know if I would like this book or not and had been putting off reading it for over a year. I am so glad I finally read it. Although our church has a very small youth group (less than 10 students grade 7-12), I found the information in this book useful to me as a parent. It is a must read for any parent considering putting their teen-ager in a youth group. It is going on my yearly reading list.
