According to the authors, the ADD children and adults they counsel face a host of hardships in their relationship to and participate at church or in their community of faith. They say that many Christian ADDers try to pass for normal as they fellowship and worship with other believers. Why? The core symptoms of ADD can challenge their ability to pay attention to the sermon, dismiss daydreams, battle boredom, restrain restlessness, stay seated, imped impatience impulses, and even get to church on time. The book by Halverstadt and Seiden goes beyond the classic symptoms of ADD. Co-author Jonathan Scott Halverstadt, LMFT introduces all six of the sub-types of ADD from the work of Daniel G.
