What will my life be like? Who will I be? Whether girls put these concerns into words or struggle anxiously with these thoughts, during this season of change, girls have questions. Sometimes these questions also come with fears and they need a safe place to process these fears. From Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker and blogger, Lynn Cowell, comes Faithgirlz Brave Beauty: Finding the Fearless You. For girls 8-12, Brave Beauty brings tweens 100 courage-building moments to reflect on Scripture and find confidence in God, rather than in someone, some place, or some thing, as culture will all-too-soon tell them to. Lynn will also prepare girls to:
- Overcome confidence-defeating thoughts and stand on who Jesus says she is.
- Shape her self-worth on Christ and overcome the temptation base it on environmental factors.
- Build a strong foundation to face the fickle and flippant opinions of others.
- Find approval of herself even when she lacks the acceptance of others.
- Find security by turning to Christ as she steps through the exciting, yet scary world of growing up
Formatted as theme-based mini chapters, these moments can be read as one-a-days, one-a-weeks, or at the reader’s own pace. Simple and empowering, Lynn’s voice is relatable and conversational, making it easy for girls to feel like they’re spending time with a friend. This inspirational read will be set as a gorgeously foil decorated hardcover, with beautifully formatted pages in line with the well-known and loved Faithgirlz look, and with an easy-reference index to look up any topic. AMAZON 5 STARS
What a great gift this book would be; it's attractive and solid in appearance. The only thing missing is a lock and key. I am saying that partly tongue in cheek because of what the author said about it being like a personal diary. As I read through it I could see what she meant. It's like a friend talking to you, presenting information in a easy to understand way. Then the reader has the opportunity to answer small quizzes as they think things through and write it down.
This "Diary" is definitely interactive but not in a difficult way. At the end of each chapter there is a "Getting to Know you short" quiz or "Becoming Brave" simple action. Each end of Chapter does have a "Courageous Call" short prayer.
Lynn also shared that it's a go at your own speed kind of book, whether you read all the way through the 100 days moments or you go 100 weeks or somewhere in between. She called it a Journey and I liked that.
There were examples and stories both from the Bible and from living people. It made for a good mixture. The Bible examples were also presented in an easy to understand way as well. It didn't feel like being talked down to but talked with.
P.S. I am setting this book aside for one of my granddaughters who is coming close to this age range.
I received the book in this post compliments of ZonderKidz via Handlebar Marketing however all opinions are my own.
