Live Brave: Devotions, Recipes, Experiments, and Projects for Every Brave Girl

Loaded with Bible verses, prayer starters, recipes, crafts, and other hands-on projects, this devotional pulls preteen girls closer to God while providing them fun, age-appropriate activities to help them live out a brave life.

Each of the brand-new 90 devotions in Live Brave features a passage written from the perspective of one of the popular Brave Girls characters--Hope, Glory, Faith, Gracie, and Honor--along with a Scripture and prayer. Each devotion is designed to help girls learn to trust God's character and act out His goodness.

In addition to this meaningful spiritual content, Live Brave includes prompts for over 30 enriching activities. From baking and science experiments to crafts and service projects, girls will have a blast, grow in faith, help others--and get a little messy along the way. The Brave Girls characters invite tween readers to join them in . . .

• starting a neighborhood small jobs business
• drawing Scripture word art
• building a solar oven (and baking s'mores!)
• making a journal jar
• hosting a school-supply drive
• crafting paper-plate gift baskets
• and more!

Every family is different, so each activity is adaptable for either a solo adventure or group bonding. You'll love the creative, budget-friendly ideas for friend and family time.

Written in a voice that emulates a contemporary adolescent girl, this interactive, high-energy devotional helps preteens take ownership of their spiritual journey. Girls will practice everyday bravery and grow in godly character as they take their faith off the page and into the world.
