Author Description

What if, for just six weeks, young women forgot about their struggles? What if they turned the spotlight away from themselves and toward the one who knows them best? A Daughter's Heart: Falling in Love with the Father gets back to the beautiful basics as young women from high school to college explore a holy yet intimate God. Written in a comfortable, conversational style, A Daughter's Heart uses Scripture, relevant examples, and personal responses to encourage an authentic faith. The study, ideal for small groups or individual devotions, is inspired by Jesus's command to love God wholeheartedly. And in today's world, this kind of focus is more crucial than ever. After all, when young women are head over heels for the Father, everything else falls into place. Discussions in this inspiring six-week study present timeless truths about God: • His attributes of holiness, jealousy, and omniscience • His sacrifice of the Son Jesus Christ • His promise of peace, wisdom, and strength • His desire for praise, reverence, and obedience • His victory over confusion, loneliness, and disappointment Join author Ava H.
