February 2008


From the Editor's Desk

Our writers and I are excited to introduce to you our first issue of Growing in Grace Magazine. The Lord burdened the hearts of myself and Mrs. Dixon to begin a conservative publication that would inspire young ladies to live their lives to please the Lord in their proper Biblical role. Our writers all have a desire to learn and 'grow in grace' right alongside the rest of you. Please join us in prayer as we seek God's wisdom and leading as we put our fingers to the keyboard to bring you what He has placed on our hearts.

We bring you experiences that God has brought us through and it is our desire to show you the grace that God has bestowed upon us, in order to encourage you in your relationship with Him as well. Our lives are not without error, yet God lovingly and sometimes firmly keeps us in line with His Word and the God given authorities in our lives, in order to present ourselves a living sacrifice for His glory. We pray that God will use this publication to inspire and encourage all of you as we are "Growing in Grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ". 2 Peter 3:18.
