A duo that girls can listen to

Yesterday I had the opportunity to listen to a duo called the Sonflowerz. They performed at an event called Atlanta Fest, which is a three-day music festival that plays hosts to big names, up-and-coming artists, and music for pretty much every taste. The kicker is this: it's all outdoors. Atlanta. In the summer. In the sun and the heat and the humidity.

Why am I blogging about this? Because after watching them perform in the heat, sign merchandise in the humidity, pose for pictures with people who were as sweaty as they were, and listen to stories from people they'd never met before and will probably never meet again, I came away with one impression: these girls have a heart for ministry.

I got to talk with them after the concert. I found out about their background (they are sisters, by the way) and their passion for reaching girls.They were sincere. They were transparent. They were humble. They were funny.

I am always on the look-out for role models for teen girls. After meeting Becca and Elissa (who are older than they look!), I can add this duo to my reference list. I came away from my encounter knowing that they are followers of Christ first and foremost. Music is their avenue of service. Unfortunately, sometimes that's a rare find. I'm glad I "found" them.

What about you? What Christian artists have you found as role models for teen girls?
