I bought this to go through with my daughters who are 8 and 9 years old. I wanted something we could do together but would be more fun for them than just reading through our bible. They have loved this. It's simple enough that it doesn't frustrate them but challenges them to think beyond themselves. I love anything that paints a true picture of our God as a loving, compassionate father. I want my girls (and my boys) to know that God loves them and cares about everything in their lives. Not just their sin and not just big deal stuff. This book makes it clear that God cares even about how we feel about ourselves. Our insecurities, our quirks, everything. It also makes clear that He is the source of our security. Teaching girls to value their uniqueness and to know that they aren't meant to be like "that other girl" is such a valuable lesson. This book shows young girls that God really is there and really truly cares, through examples, stories, and some tough reflection questions. Doing this together has also allowed my daughters and I to share with each other our vulnerabilities and our strengths. Precious time together!!
This book is a more indepth devotional than the Yearly Mother-Daughter one. It only has 5-7 devotions it it but they are all EXCELLENT about teaching our daughters how to be best friends with JESUS and thus, learning how to be a good friend to her girlfriends, siblings, etc. I highly recommend it. Great spiritual training as well as a wonderful way to connect with your daughter and keep those lines of communication open! :)
We are using this book for a series in our girls club. It is great fun. My 10 year old daughter is in this club and the girls look forward to the lesson. It is a small group of about 8-12 girls. The book has lessons on what they are dealing with now at school and in the world.
I ordered all of Dannah Gresh's books and so far, I absolutely love them! We are doing the friendships dates as a group activity and my kids really enjoy it too! It's an easy way to connect to your daughter as she grows and becomes more independent and this book makes Jesus real and yet, simple - not distant and blurred with biblical words. AWESOME!
I have found this book to be extremely positive for my daughter's spiritual growth. She is learning to be consistent in doing her devotions as well as discovering what it means to study the Bible. I am grateful that Dana Gresh took the time to write such a comprehensive and understandable book for my tween!Here are my 8 yr old daughter's comments about this book:Sometimes i like reading the Bible but after a while it gets boring. This book is full of activities and fun that help me to understand what the Bible is saying to me.
I purchased for my 12 year old daughter, and she said that it was way too young for her. She suggested it for girls less than 10 years of age.
I have 4 daughters and have tried many girls' devotionals with them. This is my favorite so far! It could be done independently by your daughter, but my daughter and I have enjoyed going through it together. We usually take several mornings to go through each chapter. It has spawned many great conversations! Dannah uses scripture beautifully to teach God's truth in a way that young girls can understand and apply to their lives.
I have 8 & 9 year old girls who are excited about having their first Bible study with friends. They are starting to spend time alone in prayer and reading God's word with the help of this study. It is challenging them to think about their friendships, too. The author encourages the girls to have their Bibles next to them for the study but she prints all the verses she references right in the book. I can't give 5 stars for that. I think that my pre-teen girls are old enough to find the verses in the Bible. I have encouraged them to look them up even though they are written out for them.
