Unlike the newborn and toddler phases, parenting teens doesn't come with many resources or "how-to" guides. Today my guest, Melissa B. Kruger, shares wisdom and encouragement from her latest book Parenting with Hope: Raising Teens for Christ in a Secular World. Even as a mom of young kids, one a pre-teen, this book gave me so much practical advice for preparing to head into the teenage years.

Whether you want to instill a strong faith in your child's life, create open communication with them, or just need practical wisdom for navigating the teen years, this conversation will give you some starting points for building a stronger relationship with your child.

We'll also discuss:
what surprised Melissa about the teen years as she headed into that season with her oldest childthe importance of transitioning into new stages with our childrenwhat type of home life typically has the best outcome for teensthe difference between a gracious home and a permissive homethe idols parents struggle with and how those things limit our faithhow to get your teen in church, even when they think it’s boring or pointlessencouragement for the mom whose kid(s) still struggle with the pressures of the world despite being raise with a solid Christian foundationMelissa uses biblical teachings, insights from developmental experts, and her personal experiences as a teacher and mother of three young adults to help guide parents on raising teens with a rock-solid faith in her new book.
