Introducing Beautiful in Christ...again

Beautiful in Christ was a "ministry" that Kylie and I decided to start in October of 2009. We thought that it would be a great way to reach out to girls who were in need of help, or an encouraging word. 
As writers, Kylie and I love to write anything. From blog posts to full-length books. But we also feel the calling to write to teen girls to help them get through their hardest time in live - their teen years. 
We all know how rough it is to be a teen - especially when people are constantly making fun of us for being different, or being Christians. We get discouraged and feel like we have to live up to everyone else's expectations.
But the truth is - we are all different. And because of that, we are all unique. We all have amazingly unique characteristics that set us apart from other people.
And guess what?
That's perfectly okay. 
You are GREAT just the way you are.
And that's what Kylie and I are aiming to tell you. We are trying to keep you encouraged through your life. And sometimes she and I need some encouragement right back. 


In the past we had some trouble keeping our ideas flowing and our blog posts coming. We got stuck at times and weren't sure where we were going with Beautiful in Christ. Actually, we still don't. We had no idea that God would call us to start Beautiful in Christ over again, so this was as much of a surprise for us as it was for you. Maybe even more so.
But as we reevaluated the whole thing, we realized that God still wants us to write on this blog. He still wants us to give an encouraging word here and there.
We aren't going to set any type of schedule. We aren't going to push ourselves to write. But when we feel the need to come on and write a blog post, we will.
It may be weeks at a time that we don't post and then sometimes we might post more than once a week. We just don't know. That is up to God to figure out for us - and to lay posts on our hearts.


So be sure to check back soon and see if we have a new post up. Also, Kylie is working on a new template for this blog, so be sure to check back for that as well.
