Today I am featuring my friend and P31 sister, Lynn Cowell, to help get the word out about her awesome new devotional book for teen girls releasing next week, called Devotions For A Revolutionary Year. This is an accompanying devotional book to her recent book for teens, called His Revolutionary Love, which I loved and have two copies of.
This is a must have for anyone who plays a role in developing a young girls heart, especially if she lives in your own home. Read below for more info:
A MESSAGE FROM LYNN:
Do you ever worry that in all of your efforts to raise
your kids right, to invest in the young people in your church or influence the
teens in your family you might be missing something…something really important?
I discovered that really important thing.
Although I said that it was important for my kids to know
God’s word, my life didn’t reflect it was important. My life said was softball,
piano, homework, voice lessons, youth group and school were important. In the
craziness of the way we live life today, one thing was missing: reading my kids
God’s word.
The problem was when. I had one child in high school, one
in middle and another in elementary. With one driving, one acting like she could
and another a long way off, it didn’t seem feasible that we could find a time
to read God’s word together. I looked at the crowded schedule and came up with
one conclusion: breakfast. If I would adjust the morning routine so we would
all land at the breakfast table at the same time. I would read to them while
they ate.
That was over four years ago. My son is now long gone to
college, my middle child a senior and my baby a sophomore. School started on
Monday and so did our routine of breakfast together before school.
Do my kids know every story in the Bible? No. In fact,
I’m sure you could find some holes in their faith that I still need to fill.
But I do find peace that each morning I am intentionally filling their heart
with God’s truth before they hit the halls of their high school.
Do you need some help filling those holes too? I've got just the tool to help! Check out my 7 Day Faith Builder, which offers seven days of devotions straight from my new book Devotions for a Revolutionary Year which can be sent directly to your inbox. These devotions are designed to speak to the issues that girls face each day; especially as school is back in full swing.
Maybe you’re looking for a resource to last longer than
seven days? “Devotions
for a Revolutionary Year; 365 Days of Jesus’ Radical Love for You” is
written specifically for girls ages 13 – 17, each day addressing issues close
to a young girl’s heart such as body image, crushes, performance, and social
media. “Devotions
for a Revolutionary Year” fills a girl’s heart with the truth
that only Jesus’ can fill the love gap in her heart. Seeing God does have
something to say about the important things in her world, she can establish a
history with God and a pattern to last a lifetime.
* Begin each day with truth from Jesus
* Develop the habit of spending time daily with Jesus
* Apply God's wisdom to the choices she makes each day
* Find positive self-worth in Jesus' perfect love
* Make decisions that honor God & not follow her feelings
* Empower her heart to choose relationships that are beneficial, not painful
