Conversations between God and a teenage girl inspire, teach, and motivate young women to pray and live a dynamic life for God.

Most Christian teens don't know how to pray. And when they do pray, they don't know how to discern God's voice. In "Girl Talk With God," author Susie Shellenberger shows teens how to pray and challenges them to deepen specific areas in their lives through a series of conversations between God and a teenage girl.

As a trusted author and founder of Brio magazine, Shellenberger has proven a keen ability to reach this often-misunderstood age group with her signature blend of casual, non-threatening teaching.

Updated for teens in 2010, this book will teach girls what it means to pray and know God as Father and Friend.
