Dealing with Your Rebellious Teenager: Help for Worried Parents

Dealing with Your Rebellious Teenager

Help for Worried Parents

When your teenager is estranged from you and God and is making unwise (and perhaps downright awful) choices, it’s natural to feel hopeless and helpless. Perhaps you have already done everything you know to do—you have talked with them at length, applied consequences, asked others for help, and prayed desperately, but still you see no change in your child’s life or choices.

Barbara Miller Juliani draws from her own experience of rebellion and also from decades of ministry to families to encourage weary parents that they can lean hard into the Lord for help in this difficult season. She walks readers through biblical truths about God that will remind them that he is aware of their situation and struggles.  God is near enough to help and these are times that call parents to walk in faith.  Such a walk will result in small, tangible ways to love your teenager.
