"Our teens are pulled in every direction and often their faith
takes a backseat. Live in Light is a collection of 5-minute
devotions, making it possible for any girl to squeeze into even the
busiest of days. In her conversational (yet to-the-point) writing
style, Melanie does a wonderful job tackling the topics girls face
today and offers not only encouragement but a strategy for facing
life with God as a guidepost. Live in Light is a book every teen
girl needs in her day-to-day life."--Lori Schumaker,
LoriSchumaker.com, freelance writer, speaker, and author of

to Trust "Melanie's ability to relate to the struggles teen girls
face is apparent on each page of this devotional journey. From
disappointment and anxiety to navigating the rough waters of
friendship and authority, she offers soothing words of empathy,
asks just the right questions, and points you back to the One who
has all the answers."--Christi Gee, author of Revival and Behold
and writer at ChristiGee.com "It can seem harder and harder to stop
and take the time to read, hear and meditate on God's word,
especially for our young people who are pulled in so many different
directions. As I have read through Live in Light, my heart was
stirred as I thought of my own daughters and now granddaughters
reading these devotions. I am sure that this book will inspire many
young women to seek their own personal relationship with Jesus in a
deeper way."--Jaqi Perkins, health and wellness coach, mentor and
motivator "Live in Light is a book filled with short devotions for
the busy teen girl. As a mom of two young adult daughters, I wish
they would have had this book when they were in middle and high
school. Melanie's wisdom shines through and is so
encouraging!"--Shannon Geurin, shannongeurin.com "The devotional
was AMAZING. It was very good and it doesn't take up a lot of time.
It gives good tips on how to balance your life and relationship
with God at the same time. My teacher read some of it and said she
would love to have it for her and her daughter! Overall the
devotional was one I would 100% recommend to other teenage
girls!"--Grace, 14 years old "As a 7th-grade athlete, this
devotional helps me balance God and my busy schedule. Having a
devotional that is easy to understand and relate to helps me grow
in my relationship with God. I am so thankful for this study and am
recommending it to my friends and family!"--Ava, 13 years old

daughter, I feel this book addresses many of the relevant topics
important to girls."--Dawn Klinge, blogger and author of Look to
Jesus: How to Let Go of Worry and Trust God
