"If only I were skinny ... if only I had a boyfriend ... if only I could fit in with the other girls at school, then I'd be happy." Do you know what your teen daughter really thinks about herself, her relationships and the world around her?

Protecting Teen Girls From Cultural Lies (Part 1 of 2) - Leigh DeMoss and Dannah GreshMany teenage girls - even Christians - are convinced they must have a "perfect" appearance, a boyfriend and the approval of their peers in order to feel complete. So, how can modern young women find freedom from the bondage of cultural deception, and how can their parents help? On today's broadcast, Leigh DeMoss and Dannah Gresh, co-authors of the book Lies Young Women Believe, discuss what their research reveals about a typical teenage girl's perspective on sexuality and on relationships with peers, parents and God. Tune in as our guests explain how teen girls can learn to uncover the lies they've bought into and retrain their minds with biblical truth.

"If you go back to the Word of God, you can overcome [lies] that maybe you've begun to accept as normal."- Dannah Gresh
