To the Girl Looking for More: 90 Devotions to Help You Ditch the Lies, Love Yourself, and Live Big for God releases Tuesday, April 11
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (January 2023) – In a world filled with frustration and disappointment, beloved author and podcast host Grace Valentine reminds young women of their true purpose and identity in her first devotional, To the Girl Looking for More: 90 Devotions to Help You Ditch the Lies, Love Yourself, and Live Big for God (ISBN: 9781400236701) releasing Tuesday, April 11.
Author of the ECPA bestselling book What Will They Think?, Grace Valentine is best known for being a relatable and honest voice among her generation. Having felt the pressure of our culture’s conflicting messages firsthand, she has made it her mission to help teens and young adults navigate their own faith journey. In her new devotional To the Girl Looking for More, she shares the lessons she has learned through her own challenges and guides readers to discover their true identity and self-worth in the eyes of the Creator.
“The world tells girls to be more: be more beautiful, be more Christian, be more like her, be busier…and we try so hard,” says Valentine. “My prayer is that this devotional will help take the pressure off of girls and guide them in discovering their true identity in Christ.”
In these 90 daily devotions, Grace breaks down the truth of Scripture with her genuine, been-there honesty that has made her a role model for young women. She shows girls of all ages how to
- stop hustling to please, perform, and be perfect
- recognize toxic relationships and leave them
- let go of impossible expectations on yourself, your people, and your body
- replace worry, pressure, and fear with God’s peace
- choose kindness and positivity
- navigate all the mixed messages around sex and dating
- live out God’s amazing plans for your life
Covering topics such as body image, disappointment, navigating relationships, failure, purpose, and faith, To the Girl Looking for More encourages girls to stop settling for the world’s image of post-worthy perfection and live for more: more joy, more peace, and more meaning. Grace shares, “Five minutes a day will help you discover how to live your MORE. You deserve this, sister!”
