1. What made you say yes to becoming an author of KBC 2: The Feminine Imprint?
I really wanted to become an author for this devotional so I could help spread the advice and encouragement I wanted to share with other girls like me. I have always dreamed of becoming an author, but this book truly seized the opportunity not only to write something meaningful, but to share it with girls who may not yet be familiar with God.
2. What real-life battle do girls today face that this book speaks to most strongly?
God supports girls through all of our drama, insecurities, and doubts. In this devotional, we write about struggles that many girls face, yet often believe they are facing it alone. I believe this book helps spread the message that we are all in this together, and that there is no reason to carry our burdens by ourselves. God is there not only to support us, but also to bring people into our lives who can help us along the way.
3. Who encouraged you the most during your writing process?
Throughout my writing journey, God gave me the support of my family, just as He gives us people to support us in life. Their encouragement showed me how deeply they care about my goals and dreams. While writing, I wanted each chapter to reflect confidence and the love that God shares with us. Because those two things have such a strong impact on my own life, I hoped to place that same feeling into the hearts of other girls.
4. If you could pray one prayer over every girl who reads this book, what would it be?
My prayer is that girls, just like me, can lean on God as their foundation and build true confidence through Him. As children of God, we each carry one of His many temples within us. Because of this, we cannot shame ourselves or doubt our worth. God needs us to believe that we are one of a kind and that we matter just as much as anyone else in His eyes.
5. How can girls your age walk boldly in faith and make an impact right now?
As His temple, we are called to immerse ourselves in faith, bathe in His love, and use His strength to walk, no, strut, in a way that reflects confidence. You are God’s creation, meant to care for yourself, share your knowledge, and ignite faith in others. Remember this: God is your support, and His strength never falters. God created us as individuals, each unique in our own way. That uniqueness is not a reason to put others down, but a reason to build one another up, because we are linked in faith, united as soul sisters through Christ. God did not make us to be cowards or to tear ourselves or others apart. He made us to build, to spread His word, and to bring His love into other hearts. We are beautifully and wonderfully made in the image of God, called to walk with confidence, yes, even strut, as His temples, sharing the gospel and living for Him.
6. What message do you hope every girl remembers after reading this book?
I hope every girl remembers that she is deeply loved, valued, and created with purpose by God. She has everything she needs within Him to walk boldly and make a difference in her world.

About the book:
KBC 2: The Feminine Imprint was written by girls and teens, ages 12–17, who are ready to take the blueprint and make their bold Kingdom imprint. Zoe and the other young authors accepted and embraced a journey many might shy away from. Their “yes” to this assignment is nothing short of bold and courageous, and their voices now carry the power to inspire and lead their generation. This devotional and Bible study invites them—and every reader—to confront the real-life battles girls face today: self-esteem, friendships, relationships, mental health, purpose, identity, and belonging, all through the lens of God’s truth. Here, readers discover the same biblical blueprints that equipped women in Scripture to lead, create, build, and influence.
