As someone who works full-time in ministry to teens, I highly recommend Trisha Goyer's new book for young moms. Not only has she written a wonderful resource, she's lived this book. As a young teen mom she faced all the obstacles and misconceptions dropped in your lap along with a brand new baby, diapers, and real-life responsibility. Trisha meets weekly with young high school moms in ministry and has dedicated her life to making a difference. This book is full of practical advice and real-life ministry to the young mom who has discovered that her life has been "interrupted". Amazing tool for any parent, church, organization ministering to teens who are young moms, as well as a great resource for the young mom herself.

Life Interrupted by Tricia Goyer is full of excellent advice for the teenage mom. It addresses, in a kind and encouraging way, the problems faced in a teen pregnancy. Goyer gives young mothers instruction in meeting and overcoming the challenges of isolation, hurt, disapproval, and damaged family relationships.
She primarily deals with unplanned teen pregnancy, yet the author gives advice that any young mother could benefit from: how to get help; how to find your identity; how to heal relationships; how to grow as a person; how to pursue your dreams; how to discipline and show love to your child; how to find hope in a situation that seems hopeless.
Goyer gives this down to earth advice in readable chunks. Each chapter ends with a short assignment to help women sort through their situations and emotions and inspire growth and resolution. For example, one chapter has the reader answer short questions to determine what her hopes and dreams are.
Life Interrupted contains quotes from teen moms about how they feel, what they experience, and how they relate to friends and family. The book addresses the problems many young mothers face from a realistic, never condemning, point of view.
I found that by reading this book I gained sympathy for a teen mom's predicament, and became aware of ways in which I could reach out and help a teen mom. I was also able to see some of the errors of heart, and presumptions and prejudices that I have unwittingly carried against young moms; in light of that, I would recommend this book to older Christian women as well as women facing teen pregnancy first hand. |

Life Interrupted is the book I wish had been available when my sixteen-year old sister gave birth to my nephew. I think had she had this she would have made wiser decisions for herself and her son. This book is a wonderful blend of stories, resources, and pragmatic advice. The layout makes it easy to read and the chapter topics are relevant to today's teens. I believe this book is not only for the moms who get pregnant, but for every teenaged girl. Tricia Goyer has done a marvelous job of creating a resource that needs to be in every school in America as well every church.
