Praise for Devoted
Marjorie Jackson is a friend, guide, and sister whose words will encourage you, cheer you on, and, most of all, bring you closer to Jesus each day!
Holley Gerth, Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author of Youre Already Amazing
I love the way Marjorie speaks to real-life issues in this beautifully written devotional for young women. Renewing your mind daily in the truth of scripture and the power that comes from the Holy Spirit is truly the only way this generation will stand victorious in a culture that is resistant to the things of God. A truly captivating read for the one seeking to walk closer to Jesus.

To be a Christian woman in the world today is by no means an easy task. Devoted not only showcases the lies that women often buy into, but how to fight back with the Word of God. This book not only equips you with real-life applications on how to be a better Christian, but also how to defend yourself against the attacks that Satan will try to throw your way. These are life lessons that every woman should learn.
