The Groovy Chicks’ Road Trip to Love

Just what is a Groovy Chick? She is a woman who aspires to be at peace with God, other and herself. She is real, honest, growing, open to new ideas and opportunities, energetic, and excited about life—and she’s on a meaningful journey with Jesus!

Laurie and Dena (in the personas of hip chicks Pepper and Starshine) combine the best of both worlds: touching stories with laugh-so-hard-you-snort stories.

The late ’60s and early ’70s road trip theme is woven throughout, with sidebars and extras such as “Pepper’s Pit Stops” (road-trip advice, recipes, and humorous anecdotes), “Starshine’s Smile Markers” (inspiring quotes), “What’s Your Inner State?” (thought-provoking questions and journaling prompts) and “Lost? Try GPS—God’s Positioning System!” (Scriptures).
