SUMMER NEWSLETTER
Dear Daughter of God,
From the living rib of man God breathed life into woman, and with it he blew all the feminine beauty and emotional connection the world would ever need. “And God saw that it was very good.”
But that’s not all. Beyond a creation, God wanted a family. Not just men, but sons. Not simply woman, but daughters. Daughters of the living God.
Can you imagine? The God of all creation sees you as his own child, delighting simply to spend time with you and walk with you through the garden of life---a garden full of beautiful surprises waiting to unfold as you bask and grow in His love?
He wants you to know His heart. To experience His passion for Daughters as it unfolds through Scripture like petals in bloom. Through Rahab, Ruth, Mary, and many more, He communicates the caring touch of the heavenly Father, and the continued grace He cultivates in you. Dazzling, delicate, and utterly delightful, these Daughters dared to believe in Someone Greater, become strongholds of strength and inspiration for generations to come.
