I'm currently reading this book with my staff. It is a timely book and "huge" for ministry to covenant kids. I highly recommend that student workers use if for their ministry.
Graustein does an excellent job of challenging the hearts of teenagers to take ownership of their faith and the blessings that come with being a "church kid."
A critique: The book is seemingly addressed to grade school students, however its language tone suits adults and those who work with students more than it does youth. This is not a bad thing - like I said read it; it will help you in your ministry to the heart's of covenant kids no doubt.
There is nothing new under the sun in this book but this book is extremely resourceful in putting all these ideas together in the book. The first section, "Recognizing Blessings and Dangers," is work the read as Graustein explores these avenues in "church kids."
More to come as I finish reading the book...
