Book Synopsis

Teen girls today are hit with a dizzying array of lifestyle choices, all of which can seem tempting. They need all the wisdom the Bible offers to help them become godly women. This fun, creative 12-week interactive study focuses on a different woman of the Bible each week to address current issues such as identity, self-worth, body image, eating disorders and dating. Each week, girls will learn a memory verse to help them hide God's Word in their hearts.
