It will definitely be a gift we will give our son when he gets his first device! With a practical question guide, this is a book you can even read with your teenager. From Selfies to Snapchat Jonathan also does a great job of peppering in the truth of the Bible and its timeless advice that can be applied even to our Social Media Culture."<br /><b>--Maggie John, Co-Host, Senior Executive Producer, 100 Huntley Street</b><br /><br /> "Jonathan McKee gets that social media for teenagers is not social media: it is just life!

I could not recommend it more highly."<br /><b>--Sean McDowell, Ph.D., Biola University professor, speaker, and author of over fifteen books including <i>A New Kind of Apologist</i></b><br /><br /> "To be honest, I struggled to get through the advanced copy of this book because my teenage sons kept taking it. My boys appreciate Jonathan's candid, comedic, and challenging approach and insist on reading everything he writes.
