The Creative Connection

Discover creative new trails for preaching beyond the lectionary.

Perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, here is a witty and humorous story about a girl's claim to fame and her journey toward self-discovery.

But as Nina goes down the road of stardom, she starts to question whether or not fame is worth the price she's paying.
