Courageous Women of the Bible: Leaving Behind Fear and Insecurity for a Life of Confidence and Freedom
by LaTan Murphy
How Women Can Live with Boldness and Confidence Every Day
Every woman knows it’s easy to lose sight of the heavenly power of God at work in our lives during times of hardship, exhaustion, stress, and change. But no matter the situation–whether it’s our health, marriage, finances, family, or vocation–God has equipped all women with the power and influence to live freely and confidently.
With warmth and a welcoming style, speaker and award-winning writer LaTan Roland Murphy illuminates eleven courageous women in the Bible and shows how each was uniquely positioned for success because of her courageous choices. From Deborah to Jael to Mary, Murphy shows that these women chose to draw near to God; as a result, they were equipped with power for the supernatural ability to live courageous lives despite often undesirable circumstances. These stories will inspire women of all ages to trust God, minister to others, and live confidently and courageously no matter the season of life or what lies ahead.
