Everyone who meets her thinks they know Liddy James. A single mother of two, she is one of New York City's top lawyers (with the ruthless reputation and capsule wardrobe to match) and seems to juggle her complicated life with ease.

Until she isn't.

Fun, fearless, and full of heart, The Real Liddy James takes a fresh look at the balancing act every family performs.

Are you ready to release your control of needing to be everything for everyone? In Choosing Real, author Bekah Pogue walks with us into life’s unplanned circumstances - specifically frantic schedules, pain, transition, feelings of unworthiness, loneliness, and tension - and reminds us it is in these very moments where God invites us to notice, respond, and even celebrate an authentic relationship with Him through every little detail despite our own efforts or work. The result? A connection between real life and faith so that they are one and the same.

Let's be honest. The journey to discovering Jesus - Real Jesus - can be complicated, messy, and a little crazy. Just ask Jami Amerine. Banned from the Mormon church as a child, she's spent the rest of her life trying to reconcile Fifth-Grade Jesus, Catholic Jesus, and Americanized Jesus (just to name a few). But when she met Real Jesus, everything changed. You can meet Him, too - right here, just as you are.

Finding refuge from her ex-husband at her friend's house was her best option, Kelly McNeil thought - until Matt Noble answered the door. She'd had a huge, unrequited crush on him as a teenager!

Then she got married and left town and, well, now here they are again…Matt had never mustered up the courage to ask Kelly out, and now fate has literally knocked on his door and given him a second chance. But Kelly is afraid to risk her independence and her children with a man who could only hurt them again.

As she did so provocatively with military spouses in Army Wives, Tanya Biank gives us the inside story of women in today’s military - their professional and personal challenges from the combat zone to the home front. Since 9/11, more than 240,000 women have fought in Iraq and Afghanistan - more than 140 have died there, and they currently make up 14 percent of the total active-duty forces.

Even when you feel hopelessly stuck, change is possible. As women, we are constantly evaluating ourselves. Am I enough? Why can't I change this certain thing about myself? Should I be doing more?

In Meet the New You, Elisa Pulliam empowers women to take charge of their own life transformation by engaging in a meaningful relationship with God and his word.
