6 Must Reads for Struggling Girls.

It's okay to struggle, it's okay to want help. These books are ways you can find that yourself and begin to build yourself back up. It takes commitment, time, and effort, but these books have proven to me that they are so worth it.

1. The Comparison Trap

By: Sandra Stanley

If you've read any of my past articles, you have probably seen me mention this book just a few times. It is so good if you're looking to help with having what God says about you come between your opinions of yourself and others. Life isn't always a competition, and by nixing the comparison trap so many women are stuck in, we can start to celebrate others and their accomplishments rather than comparing them to ourselves.


2. When God Writes Your Love Story

By: Eric and Leslie Ludy

My mom and her friend led an amazing bible study on this book with some friends and I at my house every other Monday night. It was amazing to see people my age begin to commit their love story and future to what God was writing rather than our own precompositions of what we thought our "fairytale" should be like.

3. The Chase

By: Kyle and Kelsey Kupecky

I have written a book review on The Odyssey for this one before, but it's too good not to share again. A beautiful and real love story of Kyle and Kelsey Kupecky is shown in this book, and it also encourages girls to wait for the guy that is going to chase not only them, but God.

4. Live Original

By: Sadie Robertson

If you're anything like me, you're already obsessed with Sadie Robertson, so why not pick up her book? She is able to relate so well to young girls and this book is full of inspiration that makes you want to get up our of your bed and go make a difference in the world.

5. Praying for Your Future Husband

By: Robin Jones Gunn and Tricia Goyer

Yet another great book about praying diligently for your future husband. It is never too early to start doing that, and can be such a powerful thing in your own life and in your future spouse's life.

6. Uninvited

By: Lysa TerKeurst

I have just started reading this new book and I'm LOVING it! It is speaking to so many areas of my life right now. You definitely need to run to your nearest bookstore or log into Amazon and buy this book as soon as you close out of this article.

In fact, just head on over to Amazon and buy ALL THE BOOKS.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
