Embrace the ultimate challenge of faith by surrendering fear,  complacency, and comfort in favor of a life compelled by the love of Christ.

Do you feel like you're merely going through the motions in your life as a Christian?

Speaker, author, and founder of Compelled Ministries Emma Mae McDaniel is here to show you the significance of what it means to boldly live out your faith in your everyday life. The Girl in the Middle equips you to choose Christ in the face of comfort and excuses, helping you stay focused on what truly matters and live for what can never be taken away.

Emma Mae shares her journey from being the target of online cruelty to becoming a beacon of hope and faith for millions. “I didn’t know what a meme was until I became one,” she writes. The cyberbullying began with a picture Sadie Robertson Huff had shared on social media of herself with two friends, and the comment came swiftly—“Who’s that ugly girl in the middle?”

The girl in the middle was Emma Mae. That comment began years of intense cyberbullying, and through it she made the surprising discovery that whatever her situation she could remain confident. She found that fear can convince you to stay within your comfort zone, but it robs you of God’s best. Emma Mae’s story is a testament to the power of living courageously for God amid hardship, disapproval, and the unknown. 

Emma Mae's passion for God's Word and her commitment to sharing His love shine through in every page. With her infectious joy and unwavering faith, she emboldens you to not simply claim to be a Christian, but to sincerely, daily choose to live like it.

Whether you're tired of staying in your comfort zone, wanting to learn how to live out your faith, or desiring a deeper relationship with God, The Girl in the Middle will inspire and empower you to live a life fully devoted to Him, compelled by His love.
