You don’t have to understand God to trust him. “Just trust me.” Those are the words we often hear in movies just before something bad happens. And yet, we are told to trust God. In a culture where we tend to take control of our own lives, trusting God has become a religious platitude rather than a life-changing attitude. We say it, but do we really mean it? And what does trusting God really look like? Sharon, Mary, and Gwen—the Girlfriends in God ministry team—have been there. They’ve traveled the tough roads of life to discover the peace and power that comes from grabbing the hand of God and trusting his plan. The life stories they share bring laughter and sometimes tears, but always spiritual growth. Each of the 12-week sections concludes with a Bible study guide and journal page, inviting you to lock arms with Sharon, Mary, and Gwen and share with other women in a small group setting or to use individually in your own quiet time.

Planting a Seed of Faith in the hearts of our children is much like sowing a seed in a young, fertile garden. If nurtured and cared for, will take root and become their foundation to grow strong in the Lord. What greater gift could we possibly give? It is Christmas Eve, and the small foothill Village of Shiloh was suffering from a severe drought. Aside from not having water for their crops, the people had no Christmas trees. A father retells the story to his young daughter that took place forty years ago. A story that no one in the Village of Shiloh will ever forget. So begins author Dan Petronelli's eloquent parable of faith, chronicling the spiritual journey of a group of young boys. The boys hatched a plan to secretly climb over the mountain in search of a beautiful, living Christmas tree. They did not know that a fearsome blizzard was on its way. Dan Petronelli expertly weaves a timeless tale of the joy and the blessings of faith, of having courage in the most challenging moments in life, knowing that God is by your side, will provide families and young readers a story that will endure for many Christmases to come.
