A Woman's Secret for Confident Living: Becoming Who God Made You to Be

Bible teacher and bestselling author Ladd (A Woman's Passionate Pursuit of God) offers a scripture-based formula for gaining confidence. From the get-go, Ladd tells readers she is not and never has been confident by herself. Her confidence and strength come from God, who gives her what she needs every day of her life. Ladd examines the value of prayer; the necessity to form a strong identity in Jesus; the challenge of leading through acts of kindness and selflessness; and the understanding of failure as a paradoxical step to success. Each chapter provides real life examples, Bible passage commentary, and "Confident Steps" points for women to use in their daily lives. Ladd's love for Jesus and for the women who love Him shines with every life-affirming directive. Already known for being a positive woman, Ladd will most certainly continue to make a positive difference with this encouraging work. (Aug.)
