The God Girl Bible ~ Perfect for Your Daughters!

10/3/2011

God Girl Bible:  A Bible designed just for girls and young women.

     We try to read the Bible together in our home at least once a day.  Our goal is to have the girls and I read together in the mornings, when we begin our school day, and then Elmer leads us in prayer and Bible reading/discussions in the evenings.

     Revell Publishers developed this absolutely bee-utiful Bible for girls and young women (ages 12-19) to enjoy reading and using on their own.  I love what the "Getting Started" guide says at the beginning:

     "As a God Girl, you cannot live without God's Word.  You cannot know who you are or what your purpose is on this earth without opening up the pages of his book and getting to know his thoughts, his ways, and his voice.  The Bible is the answer to all your fears and all your questions.  Without it you are making life up on your own, winging it and even playing God.  If anything you believe contradicts what is written in God's Word, then you are destined for failure.  Trouble is on its way.  But when you can check yourself against what God has said to you in his book, then you can be more sure you'll find success God's way."
    

The front cover ~ a work of art!

     The God Girl Bible was designed to enable girls and young women to customize the front covers of their Bibles.  It's beautiful all by itself, but for those who enjoy getting creative, they may use stickers, markers, stamps, rub-ons, etc. to decorate their Bible covers.

     Kelsi decided to leave hers blank for now.  She loves how it looks already - so peaceful and fresh and clean.  I love the feel of the cover, and the weight and size of the Bible.

     The God Girl Bible  was published with the help of Hayley DiMarco, who is also the best-selling author of numerous books for teens, including Dateable and God Girl. The God Girl Bible includes many special features such as devotions, prayers and study aids that will help girls apply what they are reading to their daily lives.  Its cover is designed to be personalized with stickers and markers if a girl wants to “make it her own”.

     This Bible is written in the “God’s Word” translation. If you aren't familiar with this newer translation, you may go to the God’s Word website and read more about it.

Here's a sample of the text:

See the purple ink?  :)

What you will find in this Bible:


  • Book Intros: including quick facts about author, audience, themes, and more
  • God Girl Stories: 26 full-page profiles of women in the Bible
  • Know This Devotions: 200 half-page devotions on topics related to becoming a God Girl
  • Ask Yourself: sidebars that encourage girls to consider how God's Word applies to their lives on a practical level
  • Prayers: 40 timeless prayers rewritten in language today's teen girl understands
  • Quick Relief: index of helpful verses on topics and issues teens face
  • GodGirl.com: a site where girls can interact with Hayley and other God Girls diving even deeper into their Bible study
  • Reading Plans: Cover various topics, and help you read through the Bible in a year

Here's what my daughter, Kelsi (age 13),
had to say about the God Girl Bible:

     "I thought the God's Word translation was easy to read and understand, and it followed right along with the other Bibles in our house without changing the meanings of the words.  There are sidebars on some of the pages, and they have encouraging words to help girls and young women.  The sidebars also helped explain some of the passages.  There were also some scripted prayers that were helpful to pray through.  I like this Bible!"

     You may also want to check out GodGirl.com to learn more about Hayley DiMarco and her ministry to teenage girls.

     The GodGirl Bible became available in September 2011 at many of your favorite booksellers, and it's from Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.
