Your Teenager Is Not Crazy is the first book in the Christian market to so thoughtfully integrate the latest in neuroscience with Gods timeless truth. It is a landmark book that will help parents make sense out of the changes happening in their teens as they mature. What is so wonderful about Your Teenager Is Not Crazy is that it is born out of the Clarks years of daily ministry and a passion to help teenagers, including their own, grow deeper in Christ while learning to live healthy livesbody, soul, and spirit. Jeramy and Jerusha help parents understand that they cannot separate adolescent brain development from soul development. If the brain of a teen is not working right, their spiritual development will be hampered. What is exciting to me is the emphasis on helping parents understand the remarkable uniqueness of their childs brain. What works to motivate one teen will not work to motivate another teen. Yet if you understand the uniqueness of how God has wired your teen and learn to work with that child as God created them, you can help them optimize and reach the potential God has wired into them. This book will help you do just that.
You will enjoy learning a great deal as you read through each chapter. Your Teenager Is Not Crazy will deepen your understanding of the inner world of your teen. An added benefit: it will help you make sense out of your own adolescent years! Tough issues like sexuality are addressed in an insightful manner that will help bring clarity to what can be a confusing and bewildering time for both parent and teen. As you read this book, you will become excited and passionate about the reality that God has uniquely wired your teens brain for a relationship with Him. Youll also be excited and empowered by the practical strategies that Jeramy and Jerusha share.
Your Teenager Is Not Crazy is not only a book youll enjoy reading; youll actually want to buy it by the case to give to youth leaders, friends, and relatives! God will use it to help guide you through the exciting adolescent years of your teens developing brainwhich means your teens developing soul. You will be grateful for the time you invest reading this groundbreaking book and the steps you take in implementing the insights and practical strategies.
Blessings!
Dr. Earl Henslin, PsyD,
author of This Is Your Brain on Joy
and This Is Your Brain on Love
If you ask parents to describe the teenage years, words like crazy , confusing , frustrating , scary , and out of control will likely crop up, as mightthough perhaps less frequentlydescriptors such as exciting , adventurous , and exhilarating . Research indicates that regardless of socioeconomic background, race, or location, parents of teens experience a relatively consistent set of emotions that leave many perplexed and exhausted.
Perform a similar exercise by inviting emerging adults to describe the years of their adolescence, and a fascinating trend emerges. The very same adjectivesdescribing the good, the bad, and the totally bafflingare used by those recently in the throes of their formative years to depict the tumult of their teenage lives.
A myriad of explanations has been set forth to decipher this perplexing phenomenon: adolescents seem out of their mind at some point, if not for the entirety of their teenage years. Vibrant one moment and sullenly apathetic the next, engaging in risky and impulsive behaviors one day and espousing profound reflections on life, relationships, and faith the next, teenagers confound parents, who wonder, Who is this alien in my childs skin? Why did she stop smiling? Why is he angry all the time? What were they thinking? What in the world do I do ?
