Adorn Your Life with God's Best  
  
A beautiful bracelet, stylish new scarf, or pair of sleek sunglasses--there's always room in a girl's wardrobe for the perfect fashion accessory. But what about spiritual accessories? Pure things, holy things . . . lovely things. These are the life "accessories" that are must-haves, says Rhonda Rhea. And using Philippians 4:8-9 as a springboard, she takes you on a fun adventure infused with practical spiritual truth about how focusing on those things can lead to a more fruitful, more blessed, and more peace-filled life. Rhonda includes a discussion guide, making this a great book for small group Bible studies.
