Frequently Asked Questions of the Author, Myklin Cox

 

1.  Why did you write What Every Girl Should Know?
"A dear woman of the Lord approached me about teaching at a local homeschool ministry that she and her husband were starting in the area. She told me of her idea to have a girl's class on all the things young women should know these days. It took a little convincing on her part and a lot of prayer on mine, but in the end I agreed to teach the class. The material in What Every Girl Should Know stemmed from that class."

2.  What is the Scriptural basis behind it?
"When I knew I was going to teach a class on things every girl should know, I began delving through the Scriptures to see what God had to say on the issue. I looked up the word 'know' in the Bible and the Lord just starting putting together material based on those verses. For example, James 4:4 says, 'know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?' That verse was a perfect launching pad to open a discussion about Godly friendships. Before I knew it, chapters and topics began forming faster than I could type! He simply gave me key Scriptures describing things we all should know that could be applied to a girl's life as well. I wanted the girls in my class to be able to take some of these lessons home with them, so I thought I would give them a few handouts each week. Before I knew it, those 'few' handouts had turned into a full size book!"

 

3.  What topics are covered in the book?
"There are a variety of issues discussed in What Every Girl Should Know. Some of the topics included are:

Each subject has practical suggestions and Scriptural principles for the girl to be able to live out in her daily life."

 

4.  What age group is this course intended for?

However, I know girls anywhere from the age of eight to eighteen that have enjoyed going through What Every Girl Should Know. It really just depends on the girl. Everyone's a little bit different!"
