Review Quotes:
"'After college' is my daughter's world right now, and Erica is answering her questions with the wisdom of a pastor, the skills of a counselor, and the gentleness of a friend. As someone whose full-time audience is 18-24-year-olds, I love that this revised edition offers spot-on content to every recent grad I know. I didn't think the first edition could get any better. It did!"
Sam Van Eman, experiential designer with the CCO and author of Disruptive Discipleship
