A valuable resource

Published and republished by Concordia Publishing House, the publishing house of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod, this is perhaps the most useful resource for any church professional or volunteer working with early-adolescent youth. The curriculum helps build common friendship and social skills in youth through the means of games, small group interaction and Biblical discussion. The authors' expertise with early-adolescents is aparent in their selection of subject matter. Lessons include, "Who's in Charge? Influence and Control", "Feelings Fair: Feelings are Important", "I Can Feel Your Pain: Empathy", and "Talk To My Hand: Conflict Management" just to name a few. The book also includes some extra activities to help youth discover their personality or listening style.This book responds to the pain youth experience every day as they deal with broken friendships and other relationships. It truly is a tool you will use again and again.
