Synopsis

Teach your children to choose the right path, and when they are older, they will remain upon it. - Proverbs 22:6 NLT. In a time where modesty is of little value and many kids have had at least one sexual encounter before graduating high school, children are growing up faster than ever. They experience pressures that, in days past, we're not faced until adulthood. They encounter situations that many adults will never meet. So how do we teach our girls to follow God when life around them at school, in magazines, and on TV teaches them to follow nothing but their passions and desires? How to we share with them that Jesus is the answer to their every question and the fulfillment of their heart's desires? In this hopeful and insightful workbook, Donna Miller shows us how.

Growing Little Women will provide you and your special girl with teachable moments from the Word of God. Filled with engaging stories, fun activities, and lessons on life, you will prepare her to become a godly woman and establish a bond with her that will smooth her passage to womanhood. In just one hour a week you can impact the future of that special young lady and nurture a friendship that will last forever. Time is ticking. Don't let it get away.

This commentary was extremely helpful in working through some of the difficult passages. Howard F. Vos takes a passage like the creation story and details several possible interpretations and explains them in a clear and understandable way. He leaves the reader with the option of coming to their own conclusion but also gives background support that leads the reader to the most supported view.

-Joe Timmer, Food Purchaser

Dr. Vos provides a detailed, biblically based examination of some of the most significant figures in the Bible through their faithfulness as well as their failures. Through these examples, readers will gain meaningful insight into their own relationship with a sovereign and holy God.

-Lauren Lim, Special Needs Paraeducator

Genesis can be an intimidating book to approach, but this commentary gave me confidence in understanding the places, people, and events within its pages. I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned from this book with my students!
