God has made every woman in his image, and he says that's very good—so that's something to celebrate!
March 8 is International Women’s Day, so we’ve compiled a few books to help you reflect on God’s good plan for women. Read on for our recommendations for every girl from 7 to 97.
Mother-daughter duo Jen and Zoe Oshman spell out a handful of reasons why it’s so good to be a girl in their appropriately titled storybook, It’s Good to Be a Girl. The memorable refrain “Let’s thank our God, rejoice and twirl, because it’s good to be a girl!” is adapted and repeated throughout the book for little readers to declare. The authors share about several godly women from the Bible and throughout later history who young girls can look up to, like Priscilla, Lydia, Harriet Tubman and Esther Ahn Kim.

Christian history is packed with rich stories of faithful men and women from all over the world. The Do Great Things for God series sheds light on a handful of those stories, highlighting hymn-writers in New York all the way to Bible-translators in the Congo. The two newest additions to the series tell the stories of Civil Rights activist Fannie Lou Hamer and pastor’s wife and author Susannah Spurgeon. Biographies on faithful male believers are coming in 2025!
There are so many reasons to love this series. Here are a few more:

As modern-day Christians, how should we engage with the big controversies and day-to-day topics of our culture: things like movies and books, body image and prejudice? How can we avoid becoming more like the world without completely checking out from it?
In Beautifully Distinct, female believers of all walks of life join to discuss different areas of our culture so that you can be better equipped to engage with it.
Motherhood can leave us feeling as anxious about “getting it right” as it does joyful. The mother-daughter duo behind He Gives More Grace put together 30 devotions designed to infuse a dose of grace into your every day. The chapters are short and digestible, making the book a do-able addition to your life.
