Stepping Stones is a great gift book designed to encourage parents and give them biblical and insightful wisdom that relates to parenting teens.

His words are seasoned with years of experience as an author, speaker, host of Parenting Today’s Teens radio program, and a parent himself. This book serves as a collection of short bits that you can mull around and meditate on for days. Proverbs 12:15 that says, “The way of fools seems right to them, but the wise listen to advice.” It is simple, brief, to the point, and is written in a way that the reader can remember. These nuggets of truth are shared in hopes that the reader would remember them, think about them, and consider how each might just impact their relationships within their family.

About the Author:

Mark Gregston is the host of the popular radio program, Parenting Today’s Teens, heard on over 2,500 radio stations, and has authored several books to help parents prepare for and survive the often-turbulent teen years. A popular speaker and seminar leader, he blends humor and storytelling with Biblical insights for parents who desire a deeper relationship with their teen. Mark’s background as a youth pastor, a Young Life area director, and the founder of Heartlight Ministries (a residential counseling center for teens), coupled with his passion for helping parents caught in difficult situations, provides the foundation from which he speaks. His effectiveness is grounded in a practical approach and the lessons learned from years of having 50 struggling high school kids live just beyond his back door at Heartlight. Mark has been married to his wife, Jan, for 36 years. Together they have two grown kids who are each married, two grandkids, 1 dog, one cat, and too many horses.

"If you are struggling with a difficult teen, remember that God isn't yet finished with her-or you- so don't quit."

"Train your teen for the world in which they may eventually live, not just the world in which you hope they will live."

"Remind your teens that there is nothing they can do to make you love them more, and nothing they can do to make you love them less."
