Helping Daughters Discover True Identity in Jesus Christ
Empowering daughters to discover their true identity in Jesus Christ is crucial amidst societal and peer influences. By emphasizing Jesus' love and their value as beloved daughters of God, parents can instill responsibility, purity, and the importance of inner beauty in their daughters.
