As the world experiences a loneliness epidemic, we need friendship as much as we ever have before.
People could live their whole lives online. School, church, work, and a social life can all be found on the internet, providing opportunities to trade deep friendships for convenient yet shallow acquaintances. The easier it becomes to be independent, the harder it is to find togetherness–especially for teen girls and young women.
Hey Friend: 31 Journaling Devotions on Friendship helps girls know that God made them for friendship. They don’t have to live life alone. Each devotion is written by young women for young women and offers relatable stories of friendship, passages of Scripture, journaling questions, and practical ways to find friends instead of staying isolated. Friendships end, begin, and change all the time, and Hey Friend is every girl’s guide to learning how to navigate friendship in changing seasons from switching schools to going off to college to needing to walk away from certain friendships and invest in others.
Writers Cambria Joy Dam-Mikkleson, Tega Faafa, Alexus Lee, Lauren Groves, Kolby Knell, Gabrielle McCullough, Alena Pitts, Yvonne Faith Russell, and Tara Sun each write about what the Bible has to say about friendship and what it means for each reader’s friendships today. Their stories are honest and heartbreaking, hilarious and sincere, encouraging and empowering. They beckon readers not to simply take their advice, but to search for what God’s Word has to say about community and companionship.
These devotions will help young women:
*handle drama in friendship
*know what to do when feeling isolated
*speak highly of friends instead of gossiping
*find trustworthy friends
*love friends like Jesus did
*pray for friends
*discover the Bible’s themes of friendship
Hey Friend is a tool for togetherness in a lonely world. It reminds girls that God made people to be with people, and He wants our friendships to flourish.

Message In The Moon
$15.99Add to cartThis gorgeous picture book illustrates the unique relationship between children and their parents and how this special love connects them always, from near or far–from Emmy-nominated actress, producer, and New York Times bestselling author Roma Downey.
Oh Moon, moon, moon that shines so bright.
Please send this message far . . .
So all will know that they are loved,
No matter where they are.A Message in the Moon was inspired by Downey’s own story of losing her mother when she was just ten years old and the comfort her father brought her. Years later, when Downey left home for college, her father pointed to the full moon and told her, “Whenever you feel alone, always look into the night sky, and you’ll be reminded of how much I love you. I’ll leave a message for you in the moon.” That simple comfort remains with Downey today, and now she is passing it on to parents and children alike.
Beautifully illustrated by New York Times bestselling artist Holly Hatam, A Message in the Moon features charming vignettes that show characters finding reassurance in the moon’s message. “Whether your child is going to their first sleepover, their first day of school, or their favorite stuffed animal is inexplicably gone, whether they are experiencing the loss of a goldfish, or a sibling has left for college, A Message in the Moon helps parents to explain the feeling of longing to their little ones,” Downey writes.
With whimsical artwork and uplifting rhymes, A Message in the Moon is a perfect reminder for parents and children alike that they are never alone. They just need to look to the moon and remember that they are loved.

How Far To The Promised Land
$27.00Add to cartFrom the New York Times contributing opinion writer and award-winning author of Reading While Black, Esau McCaulley shares a riveting intergenerational account of his family’s search for home and hope.
For much of his life, Esau McCaulley was taught to see himself as an exception: someone who, through hard work, faith, and determination, overcame childhood poverty, anti-Black racism, and an absent father to earn a job as a university professor and a life in the middle class.
But that narrative was called into question one night, when McCaulley answered the phone and learned that his father-whose absence defined his upbringing-died in a car crash. McCaulley was being asked to deliver his father’s eulogy, to make sense of his complicated legacy in a country that only accepts Black men on the condition that they are exceptional, hardworking, perfect.
The resulting effort sent McCaulley back through his family history, seeking to understand the community that shaped him. In these pages, we meet his great-grandmother Sophia, a tenant farmer born with the gift of prophecy who scraped together a life in Jim Crow Alabama; his mother, Laurie, who raised four kids alone in an era when single Black mothers were demonized as “welfare queens”; and a cast of family, friends, and neighbors who won small victories in a world built to swallow Black lives. With profound honesty and compassion, he raises questions that implicate us all: What does each person’s struggle to build a life teach us about what we owe each other? About what it means to be human?
How Far to the Promised Land is a thrilling and tender epic about being Black in America. It’s a book that questions our too-simple narratives about poverty and upward mobility; a book in which the people normally written out of the American Dream are given voice.
