Featured Book
You Got This!
100 Faith-Strengthening Devotions for Middle Schoolers
Middle school is full of big feelings, new experiences, changing friendships, and questions about who you are and where you belong. It's a season when kids need encouragement, confidence, and reminders that God is with them through it all.
You Got This! gives middle schoolers 100 opportunities to discover what God's Word says about the things they're facing every day.
From friendship, worry, and confidence to conflict, comparison, and identity, each devotion includes:
- An encouraging Bible verse.
- A relatable illustration or personal story.
- A fun activity or practical challenge to help readers put their faith into action.
Written to help middle schoolers build a confident, everyday faith, this book is also a great resource for parents, grandparents, mentors, and youth leaders who want to encourage the next generation.
