description: Over 513,000 teens gave birth in 1995. The Christian community is not immune to the problem of teenage pregnancy. Each year, thousands of church leaders and church-going families suddenly find themselves with a pregnant teen daughter. But you never thought it would happen in your own Christian family. Wondering what steps to take first? Where to find emotional support? Nervous about the response of family, friends, or the church? Overwhelmed by the options related to housing, finishing school, medical care, parenting, and adoption? There is help and hope even in the midst of your shock and pain! If you’ve learned of your daughter’s pregnancy, be assured that you are not alone in your pain. Others have been where you are. Designed as a step-by-step guide and workbook to help parents of a pregnant teen or college student, How To Survive Your Teen’s Pregnancy will help you through the shock, disappointment, and anger, and show you how to redeem beauty from the ashes of this crisis. Written in a devotional workbook format, each chapter of this 192-page book lovingly addresses an issue to discuss, a decision to examine, or an action to take. Read a related portion of Scripture, identify with a real-life story from those who have survived their teen’s pregnancy, and work through journaling exercises and practical action steps. Appendices list dozens of resource books and agencies. You’ll want to keep a spare copy on hand to give to your friend when they call to share the grief that their teen daughter is pregnant.
