It is so important for us to inspire our children with the stories of heroes and heroines of the Bible. One book that I recommend is titled Sheroes of the Bible by Lauren Nelson. It is filled with stories of 26 heroic women who put their trust in God, overcame their fears, and accomplished much for His Kingdom.
Lauren was a guest on my podcast Be Convinced – Sharing Life Changing Stories of Hope. She shared her mantra: “Let God’s love be greater than your fears.” A mother of two and wife of a pastor, she spoke about her triumphant story of overcoming years of childhood trauma that had brought fear into her life. She also shared how her life changed when her 7-year-old daughter asked her a profound question about whether God thought boys were more important than girls, as all they learned about in church was about boys. That led Lauren to write her children’s book telling the stories of these women and their profound faith. These stories impact girls of all ages as they learn that God can use them to demonstrate His power and love. And, of course, they impact boys too!
