Women Growth

You are in the process of becoming. Every day is an opportunity to be shaped and formed by what moves your heart, drives your thoughts, and captures your gaze. Is it any wonder that where you direct your eyes and your heart matter in your day-to-day?

It seems to be a rite of passage for every woman: one day you wake up and think, “Wait. This is the life I signed up for?!” We’ve all been there.

For centuries, the Bible was called "the Good Book," a moral and religious text that guides us into a relationship with God and shows us the right way to live.

Et nous savons toutes que lorsqu’il est question de notre marche chrétienne, nous ne voulons pas tomber dans le légalisme et nous limiter à suivre une série de règles.

Be honest: Who among us isn’t plagued with fears, insecurities, and self-doubt? Popular wisdom says the solution is to simply believe more strongly in ourselves. But award-winning author and speaker Mary A. Kassian explains that the way to combat fear is with more fear - fear of a different kind. In this follow-up to The Right Kind of Strong, Kassian again draws on her vast biblical knowledge to show us a better way to navigate life. She compares the Bible’s definition of confidence with the world’s well-worn self-help formulas and sets us on the right path.
