Summary: Perhaps too simplistic
Review: Greg Johnson has written a number of books on the subject of teens, as he has 20 years experience. And I don't want to take anything away from his ministry. However, while he covers a very broad assortment of questions in this book, he stays on the surface and doens't dig very deep. Most questions are answered in a page or two, and I just don't think you can adequately deal with some of the questions he introduces. In fact, he spends only 184 pages answering 80 questions, and some of the pages are the second pages of a chapter, with only a paragraph on these pages.Perhaps he should have narrowed the number of questions so he could have dug a little deeper. I would have also liked additional resources at the end of each chapter (for futher digging). As someone who works with high school teens, I know that the way they think goes much deeper than what this book has to offer. Perhaps it is better suited to pre-teens and early teens, but the 16 to 18-year-old audience that I work with wants more. Finally, a book like this--with such a great title as it has--needs to be better organized. There are no table of contents or index. I suppose the way to find a particular question is to mark up your book on your own. Truly, if Johnson could find a way to better organize a future book with more details in the answers, I know many teens who would truly buy it.

Summary: Great Book
Review: Working with the young people from my Church has been real rewarding. In this book I found the anwsers to most of the questions I had been asked. The book gives simple straight forward anwsers and the Bible scripture to back them
