This book is giving you a fairly detailed blow by blow rendition into my life, delusions, and episodes of my mental health state. I know you will enjoy it! If it is not for my wonderful family and my fantastic friends along my torrid journey, I don’t think I would be here today to tell you my story, so sit back and ready my story. And if I can save three or four lives by someone reading this and getting inspired and helping someone get well from this condition, I have achieved something in life. I have a great wife who has kept my feet firmly on the ground; she is my rock. Thank you.

Understand what your teenage daughter really means—and learn to use your arguments to strengthen your bond with her. Mothers and teenage daughters argue more than any other child-parent pair—on average every two-and-a-half days. These quarrels, Terri Apter shows, are attempts to negotiate changes in a relationship that is valued by both mothers and daughters. A daughter often feels her mother doesn't know or understand her, and by fighting hopes to force her mother into a new awareness of who she really is, how she has changed, and what she is now capable of doing and understanding. But mothers often misinterpret their daughter's outbursts as signs of rejection, and they may pull back feeling hurt and confused. Through case studies and conversations between mothers and daughters, Apter shows mothers how to interpret the meanings behind a daughter's angry words and how to emerge from arguments with a new closeness.

Abba Daddy (God) has already done all He is going to do. Our Lord did it all two thousand years ago. The Father loved you while you were still a sinner (Ephesians 1:4). Stop asking and begging or thinking the lies from Satan, God is not mad at you! Position yourself by Faith in response to what our Lord God already has done for us. Rest in the finished work of Jesus.

In this witty story of “Do You Know What Really Happened to Me, the Big Bad Wolf,” the wolf has his day in Court. He is exonerated of all charges that he caused any harm to the three pigs. As the Big Bad Wolf was leaving the jail, he met an old man. The old man told him that Jesus loves him and that he died on the cross for him to prove his love. Without delay, the Big Bad Wolf invited Jesus into his heart. That day, he returned to the Hood to save everybody he could – even Red Riding Hood!

I’m sure you may be familiar with the saying “WWJD”—“What would Jesus do?” Well, here is a new one for you: “WWJS”—“What would Jesus say?” That’s right, “What would Jesus say?” WWJS. I’m sure if you are anything like me, you would like to quote Jesus. Now you may be able to quote a line or two, but wouldn’t it be nice to have more quotes at the ready? Well, now you can. Jesus Said will help prepare you to quote our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. And in our current world environment, all Christians should be sharing the words and wisdom of Jesus. I truly believe Jesus Said will coach you in your discussions with, say, your Bible study class or spread the words of Jesus to nonbelievers. So let’s spread the word “WWJS.”
