For Young Men Only
by Jeff Feldhahn & Eric Rice with Shaunti Feldhahn What I say: This book is a refreshing read written after 600 teen girls were interviewed, and I can say from what I’ve read so far, their answers are right on. But some how teen boys, and dare I say it, grown man, are oblivious to…
Fighting Our Fears
October always brings to mind favorite fall things like enjoying the chill in the air and gorgeous leaves, pumpkin picking and cozy favorite sweaters. My calendar also says it’s time for Halloween.
