Weekly devotions offer a perfect blend of insight, scriptural understanding, and journaling so that readers may personalize and own each concept. Inspiration for Christian Teen Girls explores family relationships, prayer, and friends, but also sensitively unpacks rarely-explored topics such as depression, discipline, and grief. Highly recommended to help teens grow confident in their faith.--Sandra Byrd, Author of the best-selling The One Year Be-Tween You and God: Devotions for Girls Inspiration for Christian Teen Girls is the perfect handbook for teens trying to get a handle on faith, life, and relationships with both themselves and others. I highly recommend this practical book to all girls who are exploring their faith and would enjoy fun, but relevant exercises. It is a must-have resource for young women growing their faith!--Arionne Williams, author and chaplain to college students In a time where girls seem more interested in social media and selfies than in a relationship with God, Katara's long-time commitment to helping teen girls grow closer to God is evident. Inspiration for Christian Teen Girls is practical, relevant, and a must-read for every teen girl!--Rev. Dr. Carmin A. Frederick-James, Youth Pastor Covenant United Church of Christ Power, strength, resilience, compassion, brilliance, and humor are the values every parent desires for their daughters, but the resources are often few and far between. Katara Patton has created a book I have been searching for to give to my daughter. This creative, engaging and challenging book dares girls to find inner strength and spiritual balance with doses of free spirited exploration. This is the publication every parent who seeks to empower a daughter must place in the hand of the girl they want to see soar. --Otis Moss, III, Senior Pastor, Trinity United Church of Christ.
