When life is falling apart, God will carry you through.

It has been said that everyone is either entering, in the midst of, or just exiting a trial.

Whether the loss of a loved one, marriage issues, illness, job loss, or the stress of everyday life, people everywhere need the assurance that God will carry them through.

Through decades of betrayal, abandonment, and false accusations, Joseph never gave up on God or His purpose. And Joseph continually trusted the sovereignty of God as Master-weaver of his life. InGod Will Carry You Through, Max invites readers to do the same—to let God's message through Joseph guide His children through tough times today.

Teens really do want to make a difference, but sometimes their attitudes get in the way!

Today's teens are faced with some big issues, and their attitudes can sometimes create even more struggles for their own lives and those around them. But best-selling author Max Lucado wants to teach teens that life is a gift and that gratitude is critical. With a little perspective, teens will see that God can help them overcome their ungrateful days, their stressed-out days, and even their catastrophic days. Life is not going to be perfect. When teens understand that and realize that God is their constant source of support, help, and blessings, even the difficult days can be faced with a cheerful spirit.

Make Every Day Count shows readers how to deal with each day-no matter what it throws at them. Real-life teen stories, biblical accounts, and inspiring "Daylifters" encourage teens to make each day count for God.

A study guide at the back of the book makes this a perfect choice for individual or group study.

God wants to give you a heart just like Jesus.

Jesus felt no guilt; God wants you to feel no guilt.

Jesus had no bad habits; God wants to do away with yours.

Jesus had no fears; God wants the same for you.

Jesus had no anxiety about death; you needn't either.

God's desire, his plan, his ultimate goal is to make you into the image of Christ.

This is your invitation to spend thirty intimate days with the Savior learning how to become more like Jesus. Can you think of a better offer?

Girls have always formed strong bonds, especially in tough times. This sisterhood of women is celebrated in the latest devotional from Faithgirlz. Real Girls of the Bible uses the stories of thirty authentic Bible women to illustrate the power of the girlfriend community to surround and support girls as they become real women of God, while emphasizing each girl's individuality and God's special plan for her. Featuring women from both the Old and New Testaments ---including Esther, Leah, Sarah, Ruth, Martha, Mary, and Elizabeth ---each devotional centers around the woman's faith-journey and includes a scripture verse, prayer, suggestions for further reading, and even an item called Body Talk intended to promote self-esteem. The text is sprinkled with Fun Facts (Miriam led the singing of the first song of worship ever recorded in Scripture!) to keep girls engaged and interested. In every story, girls see God's holy character and glimpse their own potential in relationship with Him, while learning the qualities they must develop ---such as relationship, authenticity, and loving-kindness ---on the way to becoming real girls themselves.

Holly Wagner believes it is no accident that you and I are alive and on the earth at this time in history...what an awesome privilege it is. Granted, terror is alive and real on the planet...but so are we and the purposes for which we have been placed here. The King of heaven is waiting for women to take their places on the earth ...we have a job to do. Proverbs 31:8-9 says it like this...we are to open our mouths for those who can't speak for themselves...open our mouths for those who are left defenseless...we are to judge righteously and administer justice. How can we do this if we are not confidently living our life as God's girl on the earth? In God Chicks, Holly encourages women to embrace their God-given roles, such as the Warrior Chick, the Friend Chick, and the Just b.u. Chick. "We are invaluable," says Holly, "and more women need to see themselves this way.
