Becoming a Girl of Grace, Revised Edition: A Joint Bible Study for Tween Girls and Their Moms

by Catherine Bird

Overview

Staying connected during these few critical years can vastly impact the relationship a mom has when her child becomes a full-blown teen.

Finding responsible role models today can be especially difficult if you are a tween girl, or the parent of one. In Becoming a Girl of Grace, Catherine Bird takes a close look at some of the amazing women of the Bible and the character traits they model for today's tween girls. These women of yesterday have a lot to share with the girls of today! Dealing with mean girls and bullies, feeling left out, and learning to like oneself are not new social dilemmas. The Bible is full of examples of strong females who chose to follow God and pursue faith despite what was happening in their world and cultures.

Becoming a Girl of Grace is prayerfully and intentionally written for tween girls to share with their moms. The premise is simple—offer a way for moms and their tween daughters to dig into the Word of God together and keep the lines of communication flowing, full of engaging questions and fun activities.

• A facilitator's guide for small group study is included in the back of the book, which includes both online and virtual options. More resources for Becoming a Girl of Grace, such as printable Scripture cards and additional conversation starters, can be found on Catherine's Resources Page (catherinebird.net).

"As a mom myself, I sometimes struggle with how to explain biblical concepts, like grace, to my growing daughter. Catherine Bird, however, has written a heartfelt, interactive, and biblically sound study that takes the guess work out of grace, making it understandable and desirable to both my daughter and me."

"Catherine Bird is passionate about cultivating daughters and mothers who are grounded both in their faith and in their identity as beloved children of God. She communicates with a confident vulnerability that gives permission for families to share in kind. Becoming a Girl of Grace is a unique resource for mothers who want a deepening relationship with their daughters during a time when girls begin to explore the joys and perils of becoming their own women."
