I first heard of this book from the head youth guy of our state. Hutchcraft is well known for his radio ministry, and his book reflects his years of front line experience. Great illustrations and motivational sections alongside real practical advice. I think the "Four Deadly Decades" and the "12 Sentences That Define a Generation" alone are worth buying the book.

I absolutely believe this is one of the best books in dealing with our current trend of teenagers. Hutchcraft gives specific ideas on how to reach this new generation of teenagers. I put this book above Boshers and Fields as the top three in student ministry.

I am a 9 year veteran of youth ministry and I have read hundreds of books on youth ministry, but this book tops my list. It is the only book that I feel shares my philosophy for evangelism in youth ministry. I use it as a training tool for my youth staff. Whenever I get burnt-out or discouraged or some adult has complained to the senior pastor that a teen has green hair or an earing, I always go and reread this book and it lights the fire again. GET THIS BOOK!...
