10 Gifts to Inspire Your Tween Girl’s Faith

Those tween years are super hard. Part girl, part teen with all kinds of hormones and changes in personality and physicality — these years between 9 and 13 can be completely overwhelming for us as moms and for our sweet girls as well.

So many of the moms I know with girls in this age group want to be super intentional about investing in their girl’s spiritual life during this season — but they really aren’t sure how to do it! I totally understand, and I felt the same way when my girl was in that season.

Lies Girls Believe & the Truth that Sets Them Free by Dannah Gresh is a MUST READ for every tween and teen girl.

I love giving Bibles! And I am excited about this one — the Heart of God Teen Study Bible in the CSB translation. {Learn why I love this translation here.}

Every passage in the Bible tells us something about who God is, who we are as those created in his image, and what God’s purpose is for us and for the world. By reading it, we learn to discern his heart. When we know his heart, we begin to think in line with his purpose. This Bible provides teens with the tools to get to know God better.

  • Book introductions that point out the heart of God in each book
  • Short reading sections that each begin with a Setting the Stage summary
  • At the end of each reading section, a Seeing the Heart of God section draws out the message of the passage and helps teens apply its truths to their lives
  • Biographical Snapshots profile people in the Bible to show how God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things
  • Behind the Scenes sections provide key historical and cultural information
  • Big Questions address some of the hard questions and difficulties found in the Bible
  • Encountering God articles explore God’s relationships with biblical people and how he relates to us today

This would be a great Bible to encourage your daughter to see herself in light of what God says and to understand God’s character and heart.
