A Practical Guide to Culture: Helping the Next Generation Navigate Today's World

We must help them attain it. In this honest and practical guide for parents and Christian leaders, John Stonestreet and Brett Kunkle will enable you to help your kids influence the culture, rather than let the culture change them.
