Substance Abuse and the Youths: Christian Perspective does provide you with the knowledge and tools one will need to begin the battle with abusive substances. Not only will it share with you its origin, etiology, and effects, it will also show the damages that will occur to you physically, spiritually and emotionally. The information contained in the book was enlightening and easy to read and understand. As a Christian this book can and will put substance abuse in perspective with our belief. I recommend that Christians and Non- Christians alike read this book especially if they have children or know anyone who uses or abuses substances.
