Body image? Self esteem? Eating disorders, sex and the downside of social networking?Yuck, if you're a teenage girl, right?
Well, not if you're a teenage girl attending Girls of Grace, an exciting one-day event being held Feb. 19 at World Outreach Church in Murfreesboro, for girls 12 to 17.
"Girls and their mothers come from far and wide to attend these conferences," said Susan Niles, on behalf of the event.
Hosted by award-winning, multi-platinum selling trip Point of Grace, Girls of Grace will tackle issues teenage girls face through a fun platform that includes well-known featured speakers, lots of music and more.
"We've been singing together for many, many years, and about 8 or 9 years ago our dream came to fruition," said Shelley Breen, of Point of Grace, explaining the group's desire to start a conference for teen girls.
Breen said following their concerts, more and more girls would come to the trio for advice about tough issues.
"For us that's so hard," Breen said. "We are up on stage singing Christian music and (girls think) we have all the answers ... So many girls need a lending ear, and need answers."
