About this book

Daughters of the King is an original Ochorus devotional series for girls aged 9 to 12. Book 1 taught a girl who she is. Book 2 asks what that means for how she lives, and its answer is courage: not being fearless, but knowing Someone bigger than her fear. It opens with Psalm 27:1: “The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear?”

The first week faces worry, from anxious thoughts and sleepless nights to worries about appearance and the “what ifs” of tomorrow. The second is about using her voice: the five daughters of Zelophehad who spoke up and were told they were right, saying no, secrets that hurt, asking for help and speaking the truth in love. The third meets women who served, including Phoebe, Priscilla, Dorcas and the widow of Zarephath. The fourth is about leading, with Miriam, the queen of Sheba, Lois and Eunice. The fifth follows the women who followed Jesus, to the cross and to the garden where Mary Magdalene heard Him say her name.

Every day follows the same short pattern: a Scripture from the Berean Standard Bible, a teaching, a question to think about, one thing to try, and a prayer. Each week ends with a true story from our Brave for God books: Helen Roseveare, Pandita Ramabai, Ida Scudder, Elisabeth Elliot and Lilias Trotter. Day 10 is a simple body-safety day about secrets that hurt, and the days on worry encourage girls to tell a parent when worry grows big.

What is Book 2 of Daughters of the King about?

Being brave. Over thirty short daily devotions it helps girls face worry and fear with God, use their voices well, serve others, lead by example, and follow Jesus like the brave women in the Gospels.

What does it teach about staying safe?

Day 10 explains the difference between good surprises and secrets that hurt. It teaches that no one should ask a child to keep a secret about touching, pictures or anything that makes her uncomfortable, that it is never her fault, and that telling a trusted adult is always right.
