<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Campus ministry expert draws on thirty years of experience and research to debunk the myth that parents' spiritual influence ends when kids turn 16, providing practical advice for parents to pass on a faith that lasts to their teenage and young adult children.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>It has long been said that once kids are in high school and college, they are beyond the influence of their parents. This pervasive cultural myth is not supported by research, biblical teaching, or even anecdotal accounts. Yet because of it, many Christian parents live in silent angst about the faith of their older and adult children, thinking they can no longer do anything to shape their kids' spiritual and life decisions. <br/><br/>Drawing on sociological research and Scripture, Dan Dupee shows parents that it is not too late--and in fact these turbulent years of transitioning into adulthood are a time when their kids may need their guidance the most. He shows parents how to make the most out of the opportunities they have to offer guidance, wisdom, and spiritual support, with the goal of seeing their children not just survive college with faith intact but enter adulthood with a faith of their own--one that will carry them through all that life brings their way.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>When it comes to faith, your older children still need you--even if they think they don't.<br/></b><br/>You've probably heard that once kids are in high school and college, your time of influencing them is over.
