Box of Chocolates for Teens (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781425926250)

Some days, we wake up in the morning and feel like we are on top of the world. However, by the end of the day, we feel like the world has turned against us because we have gone through a trial, or a series of trials, in one day. By the end of the day, our head hurts, our stress level has increased, and we seek an outlet. For many, that outlet is food, drinking, smoking, or drugs. We find out that "Life is like a Box of Chocolates" and based upon other contributing factors, we do not know what to expect or more importantly what to do. We feel like our trial is unique and no one could possibly relate. We feel isolated and defeated because we do not know what to do when we face trials. Box of Chocolates for Teens is designed to walk you through scenarios that are based on real-life events. The book enables teens to realize their problems are not unique. Teens will begin to realize their trials are similar to other teens and they are not alone. The book consists of 180 scenarios that are categorized by SCHOOL - FAMILY - LIFE issues for each day of the school year. The book contains a 5-step application process to reveal the provisions God has made for our every need. The scenarios included in the books can happen to anyone, so teens are encouraged to depend on God and promises He has made to us through the Holy Bible. Step 2 of the 5-step process can be facilitated in a group or alone. The facilitated session enables participants to think about the "what if" and gives them an opportunity to proactively respond to issues they may face or someone they know may face. During the session, participants have the opportunity to respond to scenarios and share his/her life experiences.
