Do you often wonder why? Why am I here? Do I serve a purpose? God says yes. No matter your age or your circumstances - you have a powerful purpose.
Do you have a passion for something? The poor? A country? Justice? Because you are in school doesn't mean you can't do something about it now.
Your purpose and your passion intersect. For a reason.
Read My Name is Erin: One Girl's Mission to Make a Difference and:
- Discover and replace your fake purpose with your real purpose.
- Learn how to stop waiting and live as a mission-minded girl NOW.
- Be inspired by stories of girls like you that said "Yes, Lord."
See a problem?
The culture says truth can change. God's Word says Truth is solid.
In My Name is Erin: One Girls Journey to Discover Truth you will be guided by Erin to learn
? Truth is not defined by your circumstances, your heart, or your mind
? Truth can be discovered - not created
? How to protect yourself and your friends with Truth
? Lies that masquerade as Truth
? How to make invisible spy ink
Come meet Erin. Like you she has struggled with many questions about being a girl.
Why does it matter that God created men and women?
Why did God make guys and girls so different?
Why does gender (that's just a fancy word for the traits that make girls girls and boys boys) matter anyway?
So, she set out on a journey to learn who she is. From the only place she could - God's Word. After all, He was the one who made her and the only One who could really answer her questions.
And she learned that whether you're a mega tomboy, a pretty-pretty princess, or someone somewhere in between, God has a plan for your girlhood that goes way beyond ribbons and curls. You were made to bring God glory and the purpose of your design is to point to Him.
Maybe you've had a
moment-a time in your history when God did something radical in your
heart. Putting your faith and trust in Him certainly feels like taking a
giant leap, but really it's just the beginning of the exciting,
and-yes-radical journey that comes with agreeing to live as God calls
you to.
What does being radical look like? In the Bible, the common characteristics are:
* They trusted God.
* They listened to God's voice and then obeyed-even when it cost them.
* Because of their faith, they lived lives that looked different from everyone else's.
That's a short list and a tall order, but basically it means you can be a radical too. There's nothing on that list that is impossible for you. There's nothing on that list that requires you to be older, or more financially stable, or to have a college degree. No matter who you are or where you live you can live a radical faith.
Meet Erin, she has learned practical ways to do just that.
My Name is Erin: One Girl's Plan for Radical Faith is part of a 4-book series:
My Name is Erin: One Gilr's Journey to Discover Truth
My Name is Erin: One Girl's Journey to Discover Who She Is
My Name is Erin: One Girl's Mission to Make a Difference
P.S. You can read them in any order - but be radical and jump in!
My Reflections:
This is a fabulous series of books created for tween girls!
Kids at this time of their lives test just about everything they can, boundaries, friendships and faith, to name just a few. Books like these are treasures to be sure, as they are written in a language children can relate to, about topics that are central to their lives.
My daughter loved these books and I found them to be a springboard to conversations that could have otherwise been awkward. The books delve into what it means to be godly, in a world that is not. It challenges girls to be "set apart" I was thrilled that the books though small were action packed with places to "challenge your faith", Journal, and pray. These books may look tiny but I feel they could really leave an impact on my girls lives.... I'm sold!

So if you are looking for books to grow your child's character and faith I would recommend you pick these books up and start your own little mom and daughter date nights.
Grab your hot cocoa and snuggle up to read theses together. I also think these books may be a great tool for a youth bible study.
