Mary wasn't perfect . . . but she was faithful.
Mary was living the life of an ordinary girl. But all that changed when an angel came to her with an invitation to be a part of God's super big, ginormous plan to save the world. Sounds cool, right? Well, to be a part of God's big plan she had to give up her plans. And she didn't understand everything, but she knew it was going to be difficult. Even so, Mary said yes! Do you know why? She was faithful.
In Mary, a six-week Bible study, you'll enter Mary's story and learn how you can become a girl of faithfulness. God doesn't need the best athletes, the most beautiful girls, or the exceptionally talented to do great things for Him. He just needs an ordinary girl who is willing to say, Yes. Mary's life proves to us that when a True Girl responds with faith in the moment, it brings a beautiful, forever blessing.

Esther: Becoming a Girl of Purpose
If you've ever felt inadequate or pushed into circumstances that are overwhelming, the book of Esther is for you.
Esther was given one of the world's hardest assignments: to protect God's special people from an evil plan. But it wasn't because she was extra-brave or super-extraordinary. In fact, other than her beauty, she was a normal girl. But her life reminds us that every True Girl has a purpose and that it sometimes takes great patience to live it out.
So, what's YOUR purpose? (You didn't come with an instruction tag!) Well, if you're a Christian... the Bible helps you understand what God wants you to do in life. It's our instruction manual! And there's no better place to begin to understand your calling than by studying the life of Esther who lived her purpose out so very well.

When her friend was in need, Ruth remained loyal.
Ruth was a young woman who lived at a time when people seemed to only care about themselves--not God. And certainly not each other. So imagine how remarkable it was when Ruth gave up everything--her comfort, home, and even hope for a future--to travel to a foreign land to help her friend in need. Though Ruth would have nothing, she went anyway And as you'll see, the story turns out pretty amazing. In Ruth: Becoming a Girl of Loyalty, a six-week study, you'll enter Ruth's story and learn how you can also become loyal, loving, and godly.

Is your tween prepared for what's ahead?
It used to be that middle school was the time to talk to kids about topics like modesty and body image. Unfortunately, the at-risk demographic for distorted views on the body is now girls ages 8-10. Fortunately, Dannah Gresh has provided a resource for this need.
True Girl is geared to helping tween girls understand their dignity in Christ. It features a creative self-help text format that includes sidebars, quizzes, games, exploded quotes, and graphics to help them absorb the message.
Here's what author Dannah Gresh has to say about the motivation behind the book: My past fifteen years of studying at-risk teen and tween behavior has over and over again led me to good news: girls who are exposed to an age-appropriate, Bible-based understanding of beauty and fashion between the ages of 8-12 tend to be less likely to engage in early sexual activity or have body image issues. They are also more likely to have healthy friendships, excel academically, and become positive social contributors in their communities, all while expressing their beauty and value appropriately.
It's not rocket science. It is social science paired with a whole lot of prayer and Bible study. We can change what tween girls see when they look in the mirror by changing what's inside their hearts.
This is the heart behind True Girl: a desire to teach tween girls how valuable they are and how to honor their God-given dignity. Ultimately, it's about grounding girls in their identity in Christ so the tumultuous teen years don't uproot them.
This book pairs with True Girl Mom-Daughter Devos, allowing moms a helpful resource for walking through this formative time with their tween girl.
Why does God seem silent when I need Him most?
The prophet Habakkuk faced great storms in life. His fears of the future crippled him with doubt and left him questioning God. How is it, then, that he is now a shining example of how the righteous live by faith?
Learn how the storms of life can become opportunities to activate your faith in Habakkuk: Remembering the Faithfulness of God When He Seems Silent. You'll study the book of Habakkuk--which maybe you've never done before!--and discover how remembering is essential to understanding the faithfulness of God. Through daily Scripture, prayer, and meditation, you'll enter the life of this prophet, and:
This six-week study provides daily interactive Bible study and an easy-to-use leader's guide for group participation. Dannah Gresh also hosts a six-session podcast series to kick off each week of study. Find it at dannahgresh.com.
Want help talking to your tween about modesty?
Tweens aren't meant to grapple with modesty and body image issues alone. But many moms don't know quite how to talk about these issues.
True Girl Mom-Daughter Devos fills that gap. A companion to True Girl, it cements the truths of that book and provides an opportunity for moms to talk through these important issues with their daughters. It's not just a book, but a connecting experience for mothers and daughters. Together they'll go on a journey to meet with their Creator and learn to see themselves through His eyes.
True Girl Mom-Daughter Devos has a simple format of 30 daily devotions. It features:
The True Girl Series exists to bring moms and daughters together for age-appropriate, biblical conversations about true beauty, modesty, and purity.
Sixth-grader Kate Harding has bigger problems than trying to get her parents to stop calling her Katie. She has a major crush on her older brother's best friend, Zachary Donaldson, and in a moment of insanity she dares to write his name on the bathroom wall in eight-inch high pencil letters. It doesn't take Principal Butter long to match the handwriting to the doodling on her book covers. Kate is sent to detention, where she meets three new friends, and they all decide to become the True Girl Club. Her case of boy craziness is cured with some good advice from her new friends.
Miriam wasn't perfect . . . but with God's power, her courage changed the world.
Miriam was given one of the world's hardest babysitting jobs: to hide her infant brother in the Nile River while danger lurked. Her quick thinking protected little Moses and helped him rise to greatness in Egypt. Then Miriam played a supporting role while Moses led God's people out of slavery to freedom. That all seemed to go pretty well . . . until it made her jealous. (Can you say sibling rivalry?) Miriam's life reminds us that a True Girl practices courageous leadership right now because a leader is what she's becoming. And though the best leaders are often imperfect, God offers us a second chance to get things right.

Toni Diaz has a major problem. She's faster, stronger, and taller than most of the boys in her 6th grade class. Doesn't sound like a problem? Think again!
Toni can't understand why God made her both the best athlete in her class and a girl! She wants to play for the Rutherford B. Hayes middle school football team, but school rules--and her parents--won't allow it. Toni decides to do it anyway. When dressing like a boy to pose for tryouts lands her in detention, she meets the founder of the True Girl Club. The club's crazy assignments help her learn that the coolest person she can be is... herself!
Bestselling author Dannah Gresh teams up with three of her closest friends to write a hilarious fiction series about what their lives would have been like had they collided in sixth grade.
Yuzi Ukachi has every right to be mad. Because of her dad's job, their family has moved all over the place, so it's always been tough to make friends. And now his job has landed Yuzi in quite possibly the smallest town on the planet: Marion, Ohio--the Popcorn Capital of the World.
Her mom volunteered her to wear a totally embarrassing corncob costume to the Popcorn Festival, and at school she ends up in detention for something she definitely did not do! When she opens up her heart to the three girls she meets in detention, she's invited into the True Girl Club. The club's adventures teach her that revenge isn't always the sweetest end to a story.
Dannah, Suzy Wiebel, Janet Mylin, and Chizuruoke (Chizzy) Anderson are four mothers with hearts to teach their daughters truth, but they aren't afraid of the crazy true stories of their own lives. Here they blend them into fictional comedy and action that 8-12-year-old readers will love.
Danika McAllister has everything a 12-year-old girl could want, including a seat at the popular girls' table at lunch and a shot at winning the Miss Teeny Pop crown! But the pressure of her fake, popular personality is building. She ends up exploding and tossing her mom's famous Purple Glurp dessert. It accidentally hits her lunch lady in the head and now she's in big trouble. Not only is she headed to detention, but her dreams of the Teeny Pop crown are in trouble. She learns that she needs a new circle of friends so she can be the real Danika. When her true personality emerges, she discovers that she's not a follower at all, and the adventures of the True Girl Club begin.
Secret Keeper Devos journal is a great follow-up study to the Secret Keeper book. It invites teenage girls to interact with biblical texts on modesty and God's view of true beauty. With blank pages for the reader's responses, this 30-day devotional will challenge girls to view themselves as masterpieces created by God. Includes 20 perforated cards with text on both sides.
True beauty, the kind that draws people to you, comes from deep within. It comes from way below the surface. Deeper than your closet. Farther than the mall. Discover the power of your beauty. Meet with the One who created you. The One who is most enthralled with your real beauty.
