Synopsis

Graduation day is independence day for young people. It is the pivotal moment when their lives become more their own than their parents' or their teachers'. But what do you do with all that freedom? The crucial years after graduation, when life decisions and temptations and opportunities flood a young adult's life, are the years that can either make them ...or break them. New from Hungry Planet and bestselling author Michael DiMarco, Independence Day is the book every grad needs. With his solid scriptural base and tell-it-like-it-is style, Michael shows young readers that great freedom often comes with great temptation--but that it also brings opportunity for growth and success that is blessed by their heavenly Father. And that's the goal toward which he guides them in this engaging new grad book.

From the Back Cover

Graduation Day Is Independence Day!

It's the day you've been waiting for. The day you graduate. The day you declare your independence. The beginning of a bright future where you are finally the one in charge of choosing your job, your classes, your career--your life. But there's more to independence than getting to choose what you want to do.

While graduation brings new freedom, it also brings a whole new world filled with both opportunity and temptation. In Independence Day, bestselling author Michael DiMarco shares stories from his own rocky transition from high school to adulthood in order to help grads appreciate long-awaited freedoms, manage temptation, and make the most of new opportunities.

At this moment you have the chance to change your finances, your future, and your entire world. Michael DiMarco shows you how to do it with your eyes wide open.
