This well-known Christian writer of similar books for children and married couples knows a lot about connecting with teenagers. After a great background survey on teens and contemporary culture, Chapman outlines the basic challenges for this age group with uncommon clarity. He considers the dynamics of identity searching, sexual upheaval and bonding, the importance of limits, and he provides a lot of thoughtful ideas about communicating love. He's an enjoyable speaker--comfortable, earnest, helpful, and patient. Overall, Chapman uses the commonsense wisdom of his pastoral background, more than biblical authority, to support his suggestions. This is a sweeping and appealing lesson that all parents of teens should hear. T.W. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
