THIS BOOK HAS BEEN written amid a great deal of prayer. As we’ve worked, we’ve thanked God for the opportunity to share our story, and we’ve asked Him to help this book become an encouragement to many other girls and to draw them closer to Him.
And again and again, we’ve prayed for you. We love you!
You are the reason we’ve written this book, and we’ve held you close to our hearts as we’ve worked. We hope by sharing our family’s story, we’ve helped spark your enthusiasm for following Jesus.
From our heart to yours, we can tell you there is no greater purpose in life than knowing and having a real relationship with Jesus Christ. We pray that God will bless your life to the degree you seek to follow Him. We love you!
Jana, Jill, Jessa, and Jinger
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;
and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge Him,
and He shall direct thy paths.
Be not wise in thine own eyes:
fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
—Proverbs 3:5–7
