If you've got 21 days, we've got 21 devotions specifically written for today's teen girls.

Jesus dearly loved children. Jesus had lambs. Jesus had babes. He deeply loved them as part of his precious flock. However, the picture we see today is so different.

The children in the church today urgently need their own UPPER ROOM experiences. Each generation needs its personal introduction to the Holy Spirit and we need to be deliberate about it. A truly special book written by a special author with a genuine heart for children.
