The same group that I've had the pleasure serving with in foreign missions are now moving to a front line in teen evangelism: Walmart.

Susie Magazine (run by the former staff of Brio through Focus on the Family) has been entered into a contest by the Walmart corporation. The winner is chosen by public opinion through voting.

I've heard it said that we have given Satan the teen years by the values we have learned. I can see that this is not true here, but the rest of the world needs our help. Voting begins on March 7th. More information is to come. Let us show the world Who's image we should really reflect.

There's seriously no way I was referring to you. Honest.

The story so far:
Birthright: Eleventh chapter pending. 28280 words.
Heritage: First chapter drafted.
Legacy: Character and plot development stage.

SUSIE Magazine is a global sisterhood for teen girls. Our purpose is to lead girls into intimacy with Christ, guide them in developing healthy relationships, showcase positive entertainment choices, provide healthy role models and teach positive self-image.

No, SUSIE is not affiliated with any particular denomination. SUSIE is for any teen girl seeking to grow closer to Christ, regardless of the affiliation of the church you attend.

These were helpful, but does Susie Magazine have a statement-of-faith type thing anywhere that you know of? It probably won't affect my vote, but it's good to know...

*cringes* I am really really sorry to say that I won't be voting for SUSIE. :bawl: Although it looks like it would be a great thing to have on the shelves of Walmart, I already committed to voting to something else in this same contest. I'll actually probably create a thread for the other product. It's a LEGO video that friends of ours made (and my older brother actually did a voice for it). It's incredible quality, and it's based off of the story of Joshua and the wall of Jericho. So... I hope you understand. :) And: Let the competition begin! :twisted: ;) :D
