Author Shelbie Mae writes from her own experiences, in a gentle and warmhearted style that is non-judgmental and full of understanding. I appreciated that she didn’t try to use heavy-handed humor or drama, and her tone is that of a supportive friend.
She uses experiences and emotions from her own life as examples that anyone could relate to. She explained how “Acceptance of God was only a stepping stone on a journey I am continuing to take. Over the years I have dealt with mental health, crippling fear, and depression, an eating disorder and self-harm.”
The 12 short Bible studies focus on biblical women, with a format that encourages thoughtful introspection. Some of the studies are three days in length, some are longer or shorter. Each has a “Before you start” explanation, “What to read” which lists the Bible passages, how to relate the girl in the Bible to experiences in your life, what to do, a question to consider, and at the end of each study she writes a “Letter from A Girl Who Cares.”
