Mary Huebner incorporates child development principles and spiritual formation practices into 12 lessons helping middle-school girls recognize anger as a normal response to threatened self-worth, needs or values. Huebner suggests stories, film clips, songs, games, questionnaires, object lessons, litanies and other engaging exercises, along with key Scripture passages in each chapter to teach girls to make mature decisions to assert themselves or practice forgiveness rather than to suppress their anger or resort to open or passive aggression.
Deal with It includes comprehensive preparation instructions for leaders and reproducible pages from which to create student guides and handouts. The group study provides ample opportunities for girls to discover, affirm and express their God-given identities in ways that build relationships.
