The Village Girl Handbook 2: Volume 2 (Persevering Your Way to Maturity) - Tapa blanda

Rejection whispers that she doesn't belong. Loneliness blinds her to the company in her midst. Insecurity repeats in steady beat, "You're not enough." Pain promises not to release its grip. Failure tells her it's safer to stay right where she fell. She believes the lies. Through a collection of powerful stories, "The Village Girl Handbook 2" offers loving voices of truth to girls of all ages. Fifty carefully woven-together stories offer accounts of triumph over disappointment and loss. Strangers, who will become friends, tell of their own difficult battle with suffocating fear, drowning shame...debilitating illness...consuming unforgiveness. Sorrow and humor will meet you on the pages, reminding you that struggle is unavoidable. These stories, refusing to let trouble win, urge us to never give up. We’re not alone in the fight. Devotion questions, placed at the end of each story, point to the One who cherishes us, One who helps us overcome. And so we grab onto hope.

Kristi Burden is the author of The Village Girl Handbook series. Through her experience as a teacher and mentor she has observed that too many young girls believe they’re stuck in defeat. Devoted to unraveling this fallacy, first through blogging (Godsgirlies.com), and now through putting her passion on paper, Kristi shares encouraging stories which teach girls that struggle is an inevitable - yet vital - part of becoming the indomitable beauty that God purposes them to be. Kristi lives in Nederland, Texas, with her husband Jason (whom she met as a young girl) and her three fun-loving kids.
