How To Help Your Hurting Friend

This classic book for teenage girls is being reissued in a dynamic new format with accessible sidebars and intriguing illustrations. Susie Shellenberger–veteran editor of Focus on the Family’s Brio magazine and respected speaker and radio-host–addresses the most vital, personal, and life-challenging issues in young women’s lives. This is a valuable handbook for concerned friends who desire to respond in love and in substance to their friends coping with crises. The book is a Bible-based, relevant, contemporary-focused handbook that will empower girls, and, potentially, salvage and even save lives of their troubled friends. For Shellenberger, no issue is too raw (like cutting and sexual abuse) and no advice is ever vague (on page one, Susie calls to her readers that Jesus Christ is the one who does the empowering!).
