Publisher's Description
Whether chosen and celebrated--like going off to college or welcoming your first baby--or unexpected and anxiety-inducing--like losing a job or grappling with a broken trust--all change brings stress. Kristen Strong knows about change--especially the kind you didn't choose or expect. What she's fought hard to learn over the years is that change is not something to be feared but something to be received as a blessing from a God who, more often than not, works through change, not in spite of it. Strong has learned to see change not as a grievance but as a grace. In this hope-filled book, she shows women how when we follow God's will, we receive blessings of contentment, purpose, and renewed strength. She encourages women to see change not as the end of their story but as the scenery for this part of life's journey. And she offers practical advice for coping with change in every part of life. Anyone who has struggled to adjust to life's transitions will welcome this warm and personal perspective.

“Kristen Strong is an uncommon gem whose gospel-brilliant writing makes Jesus shine.”
“In her book Girl Meets Change, Kristen Strong wisely suggests that perhaps the darkness that often accompanies change doesn’t mean we’ve been abandoned but means we’re being covered by God’s hand. I had never thought of change that way before, and since reading her kind words, my soul has been deeply encouraged in the midst of my own life transitions. The gift Kristen gives is that she takes what we already know in our heads about change and delivers it gently to our hearts.”
“Change is inevitable, but thriving through it is optional. That’s why every woman needs this inspiring and insightful message from Kristen Strong. She’s a true encourager and helpful guide who will lead you toward hope and a future one word at a time.”
“Kristen Strong is a kindred companion for anyone navigating life’s changes. In Girl Meets Change, Kristen offers a saturated-with-grace conversation about walking through the seasons of life that are disruptive and disorienting. Her understanding voice and hope-filled truths take us by the hand and help us find our way.”
“I was knee-deep in change when I picked up Kristen’s book. Our family was facing a crossroads of jobs, relocation, new schools, new friends and all the feelings that go with that level of change. So when I got to chapter 3 and Kristen’s experienced, tender permission to ‘Don’t Just Get Over It,’ I may have exhaled my tears and inhaled the rest of the book. Kristen doesn’t minimize the pain, fear, or worry that comes with change. Like the dear friend that she is, she simply sits in the midst of it with you until you are ready to see the good that God had always planned for you. This book is not just one more way to get over life’s hardest changes but a tender companion to help you get through them.”
