Get ready to leave defeat and disbelief in your dust, and step
boldly into the life God has purposed for you from the beginning.
It's tough when your gifts and passions are stuck in holding
patterns of insecurity, shame, and comparison. But the truth is,
every experience of your life has prepared you to live out your
God-given purpose in this exact moment. The world is hurting and
our lives are waiting, we don't have time stay stuck--we've got to
make a move. You Are the Girl for the Job is not an empty
catchphrase. It's the straight-up truth God has proclaimed over
your life from the beginning. It's not a statement about your
capacity, but rather about His--and that's why we can dare to
believe it's true. With powerful insights and heart-pumping hope,
bestselling author Jess Connolly is here to coach you through six
steps toward empowered purpose: #1 Call It Quit (You'll see, it's
the best place to start) #2 Find Your People #3 Use What You've Got
#4 Face Your Fear #5 Catch the Vision And finally, #6 Make Your
Move You don't have to hide, hold back, or wait for permission when
God calls you forward. Let this book--as well as the study guide
and video study (sold separately)--be your jumpstart into
confident, purposed living.
We all know that having fun enriches our lives and lifts our
spirits, but so often life gets in the way. Fun seems like
something we did when we were kids, and we just don't have time for
it now. I mean, we barely have time for all the stuff we have to
do, let alone the stuff we want to do. We can go days without
actually having any fun at all. If you ask New York Times
bestselling author Annie F. Downs, she'll tell you that's no way to
live! Annie knows that when you chase fun, joy follows. In this
beautifully designed full-color devotional with a ribbon marker,
she invites you to experience 100 delightful days of discovering
fun right where you are. With her insightful writing and
provocative questions, she helps you identify what you find fun and
then go after it like it matters. Because it does. Fun isn't
frivolous or somehow extra. It's essential! So join Annie on this
100-day journey into prioritizing fun in your life.

unpacks instant gratification and peer comparison in a social media
world, and teaches how we can cultivate perspectives and practices
that will enable us to be more content, patient, and constructive.

A New York Times Bestseller! We know there are certain things we
must have to survive--food, shelter, and safety to name a few. But
there are also aspects of life that truly allow us to be joyful and
fulfilled. For popular podcaster and bestselling author Annie F.
Downs, fun is close to the top of that list. Few would argue that
having fun doesn't enrich our lives, but so much gets in the way of
prioritizing it. Tough days, busyness, and feelings that are hard
to talk about keep us from the fun that's out there waiting to be
found. With That Sounds Fun, Annie offers an irresistible
invitation to understand the meaning of fun, to embrace it and
chase it, and to figure out what, exactly, sounds fun to you--then
do it! Exploring some research and sharing some thoughts behind why
fun matters, she shows you how to find, experience, and multiply
your fun. With her signature storytelling style and whimsical
vulnerability, Annie is the friend we all need to guide us back to
staying true to ourselves and finding the fun we need.

the four Gospels features one main story line in bold type.
STOP wishing your body was something it's not. START embracing
every part of you just as it was designed. Your body is a sacred
treasure, a worshipful instrument, and a unique masterpiece! That's
a pretty big deal. But sometimes it feels confusing, awkward, and
flawed. The truth is: You and your body, all of it, are important
and beautiful, designed especially by God with a specific plan and
purpose. Each chapter in Perfectly Unique focuses on a different
part of your body and the potential it has for helping grow your
faith. With wisdom and compassion, author Annie F. Downs will help
you: Stop being so hard on yourself Stop wishing you were designed
differently Stop comparing yourself to others Stop criticizing the
young woman you see in the mirror every day START honoring yourself
instead Ultimately, Perfectly Unique will not only help you
understand the reasons God made you the way you are, it will
empower you to embrace and celebrate (YES, celebrate!) each and
every part of you.
I know God is loving; I know He is good; I believe He is big and
powerful. But sometimes I wonder if He is really kind -- really
deeply always kind. Is He? Christians love to talk about how God is
in control, but that's harder to grasp when things aren't going
like you thought they would, when your life looks quite different
than you imagined. For centuries, God's people have been building
altars to Him -- to remind themselves and the people around them of
His work. His goodness. His kindness. Stacks of stones. Altars.
Temples. Cathedrals. Why? Because they believed God and wanted to
remember Him. In the back of my mind, God reminds me that He is the
same trustworthy God -- the One who always finishes the stories he
starts. And this is my story -- of wrestling with our God who gives
a limp and a blessing. A God who is always kind even when my
circumstances feel the opposite. God is who He says He is. He is
kinder than you imagine. In a world where it is easy to forget who
He is, we will not. We will remember God.
You've heard, 'Think before you speak' a hundred times, and
probably shrugged it off just like that other insightful phrase,
'Your face will freeze like that if you're not careful.' But unlike
a facial expression, our words do stick around. (Just think about
middle school a sec. See?) Which means everything you say---from
what tell your friends, whisper about your enemies, post online,
mutter to yourself, or even say to the celebrity you ran into at
the coffee shop---carries a whole lot of power. The question is,
are you ready to use that power to make a real difference? Because
the truth is, you could be part of the first generation who uses
their words to build up and not tear down, and even kill the mean
girl mentality. Through very funny stories, Scripture, and a real
understanding of the good, bad, and ugly ways we can use our words,
Annie Downs explores the difference you can make when you speak
love to others, to God, and even to yourself. Because when you
speak love, you speak life. And that's what matters.
