Choose greatness : 11 wise decisions that brave young men make / Gary Chapman & Clarence Shuler.

Summary:

Why do some teens thrive as adults while others struggle? What makes the difference? Gary Chapman, the New York Times #1 bestselling author of The Five Love LanguagesĀ®, and Clarence Shuler met when Clarence was still a teen. Gary mentored Clarence helping him make wise decisions during his tumultuous teen years. Today, the two are close friends and both lead powerful ministries that help people all around the world live better, more godly lives. Clarence saw the importance of someone coming alongside when he needed to make difficult but wise decisions. That's why, in Choose Greatness, they look at 11 important choices every young man faces, and talk through how he can choose wisely and thereby choose greatness. Full of rich wisdom, down-to-earth writing, and compassionate insight, this book is perfect for a teen to read on their own or (even better) with a mentoring adult.
