LeAnn Race has released a new Christian children’s book, Today I Will Be Strong, designed to help young readers navigate difficult moments, relationships, emotions, and the everyday challenges of growing up. The book, announced in a press release, combines short affirmations with faith-based encouragement to support children’s emotional and spiritual development.
The book opens with the affirmation “I will be strong when things are hard,” setting a tone of resilience and determination. Other affirmations encourage children to choose laughter and bravery, apologize when they hurt someone, help their friends, and practice forgiveness. According to the release, the book emphasizes that strength is not only about being fearless but also about choosing bravery, kindness, forgiveness, and confidence when life becomes difficult.
Faith plays a central role in the book’s message. Through Christian affirmations for kids, young readers are reminded that forgiveness can come from love for Jesus and that they can have confidence because they are children of God. The book also highlights the importance of family, presenting home as a place of safety, togetherness, and unity. Its final affirmation leaves children with a hopeful message: “Today will be great, because I am strong!”
The release states that Today I Will Be Strong supports children’s emotional development by giving them positive language to understand and express important values. The affirmations create opportunities for children to think about how they respond to challenges, how they treat others, and how they can build confidence from within. With accessible language and faith-centered encouragement, the book is positioned as a meaningful addition to homes, classrooms, Sunday school settings, and family reading time.
The book is now available for purchase.
