Jody’s Acknowledgments When Bob Hawkins Jr., president of Harvest House Publishers, asked me to lead the updating of theNew Christian Charm Course,I was honored. Emily Hunter’sChristian Charm Courseembodied my core convictions and desire to help teen girls grow in Christ and in confidence. God’s hand “connected the dots” to bring this project together so girls can discover how exciting life in Christ can be. Many people made this project possible:

_฀It’s been a joy to work closely with my daughter, Angela. _฀Amy Pierson and Mona Corwin, provided valuable insights, writing, prayers, friendship, godly wisdom, and personal support. _฀Karen Bannis and Patty Couture provided practical advice and support. _฀The precious 8th grade girls at Legacy Christian Academy were a delightful part of this project. As my coauthors and I worked through the charm course lessons, I taught them to “my girls” each week. Girls, you provided wonderful advice. May you continue to grow in Christlike character, confidence, and charm. I love and appreciate each of you. A special thanks to Morgan Anderson, Adrienne Baker, Ann Byrd, Lexy Crane, Alyssa Dunlap, Alyssa Hollowell, Rachel Hooker, Maddie Keen, Allie Lebos, Cindy Lin, Katelyn Mason, Melisa Meeks, Sarah Miller, Fernanda GarciaOlivares, Abby Paxton, Katelyn Pennington, Audrey Reese, Elizabeth Wallbillich, Alexandra Walsh, Sarah Weimer, Kaitlyn York, and Emily Zenthoefer. _฀The Harvest House family, who is a joy to work with on every level. A special thanks to Bob Hawkins Jr. and LaRae Weikert for their gifts of leadership and friendship; Carolyn McCready for her godly wisdom, editing insights, and faithful heart of love; Barb Gordon for her editing gifts and willingness togo the extra milewith a kind heart; and Pat Mathis, who is always cheerful and has a “can do” spirit! _฀Thank you, dear family members, including my incredibly supportive husband, Paul, and faithful friends who provided prayer support. I wish there was space to acknowledge each of you personally. My heart overflows with love and gratitude for each of you.

Angela’s Acknowledgments To my husband, Harold, and my boys Keagan and Hudson—who love and support me. You are my pride and joy, and I can’t imagine life without you. Also to my mom, who has always been an amazing inspiration to me. She has always been there to guide, encourage, and love me through my own teenage years and now as a mother myself. Thank you and I love you!

Amy’s Acknowledgments To my sweet new hubby, Kyle, and to my mom, grandmother, Aut Shan, Aunt Sheila, Mrs. Gina, and all the sweet saints at Salem Heights who modeled biblical womanhood and what it looked like to be a Christian lady from the inside out.
