I was honored to be a contributing writer in this book.  Each chapter offers scriptural insight as well as practical how-to's for building a student ministry that cultivates students of influence.  The chapter I wrote focuses on mentoring teen girls, offering a biblical basis for mentorship with in the local church as well as practical avenues of implementation.  Below is a marketing blurb that was published about this book.
