Ten Girls Who Didn't Give In
Inspiring Stories of Martyrs
Blandina * Perpetua * Lady Jane Grey * Anne Askew * Lysken Dirks * Marion Harvey * Margaret Wilson * Judith Weinberg * Betty Stam * Esther John

These ten girls grew up to become women who didn't give in. Living as a Christian for them was difficult. They chose to do the right thing instead of the easy thing. Would you give in or would you resist?

Blandina became a Christian and then a martyr; Perpetua was forced to give up her child and then died in a Roman amphitheatre; Lady Jane Grey did as she was told but in the end would not deny her Lord; Anne Askew lost her home and family but never lost her faith; Lysken Dirks loved her young husband but they both loved Jesus first; Marion Harvey discovered the joy of following Christ and followed him to the end; Margaret Wilson became an outlaw for Jesus but obeyed God whatever the cost; Judith Weinberg loved the Lord although it cost her life; Betty Stam's life was full of danger but she lived for Jesus through and through; Esther John gave her life to Christ and died for him. In a world where we give in too easily--be inspired by those who didn't!

Ten Girls Who Changed the World
Gladys Aylward * Mary Slessor * Isobel Kuhn * Elizabeth Fry * Jackie Pullinger * Amy Carmichael * Joni Eareckson Tada * Catherine Booth * Corrie Ten Boom * Evelyn Brand

Isobel Kuhn questioned whether God even existed. Mary Slessor grew up in a slum with an alcoholic father. Joni Eareckson broke her neck during a diving accident and Corrie Ten Boom just lived with her family in a little watch shop in Harlaam, Holland. What is so special about these girls and how did they change their world?

Isobel Kuhn believed in God and then obeyed his call to travel to Asia to tell the Lisu people about God. Mary Slessor put herself through evening classes and eventually became one of the first white women to venture into the interior of Africa. Joni Eareckson struggled through her treatment and endless hospital visits to become the inspiration to many Christians. Corrie Ten Boom spent most of her life just living in Holland until the Nazis started killing the Jews. Corrie Ten Boom put her life on the line to save the lives of many Jews in the hiding place, a hidden room behind her wardrobe in a little watch shop in Haarlem, Holland.

Ten Girls Who Used Their Talents
What Can You Do for God?
Helen Roseveare * Maureen McKenna * Annie Lawson * Harriet Beecher Stowe * Sarah Edwards * Selina, Countess of Huntingdon * Mildred Cable * Katie Ann MacKinnon * Patricia St. John * Mary Verghese

These ten girls grew up to become successful women. The two things they have in common is that they all put to good use the talents and gifts they had, and they all believed that God had given them to be used.

Helen used her skills as a doctor to bring the truth about Jesus to Africa; Maureen learnt to drive a bus and then she fed the homeless; Annie used her technical skills to keep aircraft in the air; Harriet wrote a book that changed society; Sarah enabled her husband to change a nation; Selina's influence and intelligence helped the persecuted, and preserved the church; Mildred used her adventurous spirit to spread God's word; Katie Ann’s compassion rescued babies; Patricia brought Christian fiction to the masses and Mary showed that disability was no barrier to caring for others.

Ten Girls Who Made History
Florence Nightingale * Henrietta Mears * Mary Jane Kinnaird * Elisabeth Elliot * Ida Scudder * Betty Green * Jeanette Li * Bessie Adams * Emma Dryer * Lottie Moon

These Christian women were once little girls playing with dolls, making mistakes and growing up in quite a different world. But was it that different? Irene Howat has researched the lives of these famous women of God and draws out lessons we can all relate to, especially youngsters today.

Find out how Mary Jane Kinnaird prayed and helped young women; Emma Dryer studied astronomy and became a Bible teacher; Florence Nightingale became a nurse and was useful to God; Lottie Moon thought Missionaries were silly and then became one herself; Ida Scudder changed her mind and then changed India; Henrietta Mears dreamed big and wrote books; Bessie Adams became a missionary in a horse-drawn caravan; Betty Green flew planes in World War II; Elisabeth Elliot's husband was killed but she forgave his murderers and Janette Li became a Christian and told her own Chinese people about the one true God.
