APB Empowered – How God Shaped 11 Women’s Lives – Catherine Parks

 Through the inspiring stories of eleven faithful women, Empowered will  show girls that God is the true source of their power, strength, and  purpose in life. In the pages of this book, girls will encounter women  they may never have heard of and will learn some of the character traits  that go along with the Christian walk. But they will also encounter a  God who is faithful to complete the work He has begun in them. The stories in Empowered are about faithful women, but even more about a  steadfast God. Girls don’t have to do the things these women have done  to live a life of purpose; by making a direct connection to their daily  lives, readers will have a bigger and a more personal view of their  Father and His love for them. The same God who was faithful to give  Corrie ten Boom the love she needed to forgive her prison guard can help  girls love the unlovable bullies at school. The love for Jesus that  compelled Sophie Scholl to sacrifice her life for a higher cause can  empower a young girl who sees injustice in the world around her. In a  culture where the youth see value in terms of Instagram likes and viral  videos, the life of Pandita Ramabai will show the value of humble  worship.

Empowered flips the popular idea of what it means to be a strong  girl on its head, showing that real power comes from our loving Father  through His Son and removing the pressure girls may feel to conquer the  world on their own.
