Competence and Confidence

Tasha’s church, Prestonwood, shares Bible Study resources with women across the country. Their goal in doing this is to help women grow more competent and confident. Tasha shares:

“The more competent you are in Scripture, the more confident you are in your faith.”

At Live Like It’s True, we believe this to be true as well, and hope that, by listening to our episodes, your knowledge of the Scriptures grows and your confidence in the faith flourishes.

Comparison Girl for Teens

As you listen to these episodes on comparison, we hope you’ll consider both my Bible study for women, titled, Comparison Girl: Lessons From Jesus on Me-Free Living in a Measure-Up World, and also my new co-authored book, Comparison Girl for Teens: Thriving beyond Measure in a World that Compares. Both books have a chapter on comparing sin. Teens (and those who love them!) can take our “Good Guy / Bad Guy” quiz on comparing sin at ComparisonGirl.com. 

Teen girls have more opportunity and pressure to compare than ever before, and this generation of girls is desperate for truth about themselves and God. Behind the deep sadness and thick bondage caused by comparison is a persistent enemy peddling comparison lies. He knows that whether a girl drives herself to exhaustion trying to prove she measures up, or she retreats to the shadows—convinced she never will, comparison holds her hostage. But Jesus’s gospel mindset sets her free. 

Join Shannon Popkin and Lee Nienhuis as they explore the new face of the comparison game for today’s teen girl, and Jesus’s healthier, happier way of living me-free. Filled with quizzes and stories to help her engage, this book helps your teen find new freedom, confidence and true influence in the middle of a world that compares.

Take the Quizzes:

There are eight quizzes – one per chapter! We hope these will be fun for teens and moms or youth leaders and will serve as great question starters. Before you begin, you’ll be asked your age bracket (parents and youth leaders are welcome!). Then after you take the quiz, you can compare your score with others’. However, each quiz is private! You’ll only see how people responded, not who responded what way.
