You were made for more than a love/hate relationship with your
body. It's one thing to know in your head that you were created in
the image of God. Yet it's quite another to experience this belief
in your body, against the cultural ideals of a woman's worth. And
between the two lies a world of frustration, disappointment, and
the shame of somehow feeling both too much and never enough in your
body. Jess Connolly is a bestselling author, sought-after speaker,
and trusted Bible teacher who knows this inner conflict all too
well, and this book details her journey--and yours--of setting out
to discover how to break free from the broken beliefs we all hold
about our bodies that hold us back from our fullest life. The
truest thing about you is that you are made and loved by God. And
the truest thing about Him is that He cannot make bad things. This
book will help you believe it with your whole self, as Jess guides
you through an eye-opening, empowering process of: Renaming what
the world has labeled as less-than Resting in God's workmanship
Experiencing restoration where there has been injury And becoming a
change agent in partnering with God to bring revival to a
generation of women Far from a superficial issue, self-image is a
spiritual issue, because God has named your body good from the
beginning. Whether your struggle is with eating and exercise
habits, stress or trauma, infertility or injury, this book makes
space for you to experience God meeting you in this tender place,
and ring His freedom bell over your body in a whole new way.
God has a purpose for you. But maybe what you're meant to be is
still a mystery. So where do you start? Jess Connolly will help you
get answers to this question and more, no matter where you are in
your journey. Glory Girl will jumpstart your search for purpose. In
each meaningful chapter (plus room for reflective journaling),
Jess's wise words will help you: discover the things you are really
passionate about, understand your strengths and weaknesses, face
your fears, catch the vision, make a plan, and find the confidence
you need to make your move-all in the bold belief that God has
called you to every step of the journey. Glory Girl helps girls
ages 8-12: Recognize their unique, God-given gifts. Fight their
fears with faith and truth. Deal with distractions that throw them
off course from God's plan for them. Stop trying to be "the best"
at everything and trust that God has a plan for them. Stop
comparing themselves to others.
You want to believe God has called you and given you purpose, but
how do you get from feeling stuck to making a move? Here's what's
true: You are the girl for the job...and that's not just a peppy
catchphrase. This is the straight-up truth God has proclaimed over
your life from the beginning, and Jess Connolly shares it's not
dependent on what you can do or achieve but based on His power,
capacity, and character. It has taken one million, maybe one
zillion (who knows?!), slight moves of His hand to place you in
this exact moment. So forget about fear and second-guessing your
gifts, because God has meticulously prepared you to be an
ambassador for the Kingdom right where you are, here and now. Life
is too short to get stuck in a holding pattern of shame,
self-doubt, and comparison. So let this study be your very good
news: you don't have to wait for permission when you've already
been commissioned. Jess walks you through the six steps she has
used to help women jumpstart into confident, purposed living: Set
your focus Take stock of the story that has shaped you Face your
fear Catch the vision Make a plan Make your move With passion and
heart-pumping hope, Jess shows that being the girl for the job
doesn't depend on your capacity. Rather, it has everything to do
with God's capacity and our willingness. It has everything to do
with believing we are who God says we are, and quieting any
inferior word spoken against us. Are you ready? Sessions include:
Let's Quit Who? What? Face the Fear Catch the Vision Because God
Says So Designed for use with the You Are the Girl for the Job
Video Study available on DVD or streaming video, sold separately.
A more abundant life is within your reach. Join Jess Connolly as
she casts a fresh vision for how to break free of cheap grace and
empty rule-keeping and change the world rather than be changed by
it. Grace is always good news, but it's not cheap. True grace
compels us to change, and that's where holiness comes in. Jess
Connolly--beloved writer, speaker, business coach, coauthor of Wild
and Free, and author of You Are the Girl for the Job--will be the
first to admit that not long ago, like many women, she embraced
God's grace, but found herself forgetting holiness altogether.
Dance, Stand, Run charts Jess's discovery that holiness was never
meant to be a shaming reminder of what we "should" do, but rather a
profound privilege of becoming more like Christ. In Dance, Stand,
Run, Jess shares the truth that changed her life and her faith
forever: once we've gripped the grace that Jesus has given us by
faith and planted our feet on his holy ground, we become
ambassadors of life, hope, truth, and love. Jess will give you the
encouragement you need to finally: Claim your identity as a holy
daughter of God Live out your holy influence with confidence before
a watching world Discover your true purpose Dance, Stand, Run is an
invitation to God's daughters to step into the movements of
abundant life: dancing in grace, standing firm in holiness, and
running on mission.
Have you ever considered what really inspires you to action? If the
collision of YOU and God's commission peaks your interest, this is
the study for you. Redefine what grace, holiness, and living on
mission really mean in your daily life. Dance, Stand, Run is a
six-session video Bible study for any woman longing to change the
world rather than be changed by it. Through story and thorough
Bible study, author Jess Connolly casts a fresh vision for what it
looks like to live set apart as women of God in today's culture.
And the best news of all? You already have everything you need.

discussion, ways to live out what you are learning throughout the

Scripture connections, as well as alternative ways to worship and
engage the teaching. Sessions include: Let's Go Back We've Been

You don't have to be everything to everyone. You don't have to try
so hard to button it up and hold it together. Join best friends and
coauthors Jess Connolly and Hayley Morgan as they reveal how women
today can walk in the true liberty we already have in Jesus. For
all the fullness of God available to his daughters, we often feel
limited by two defining insecurities: "I am too much" and "I am not
enough." Jess and Hayley felt the same until one essential question
turned the tables: If God is wild and free and he created women,
what does this mean for us today? Wild and Free is an invitation to
find freedom from the cultural captivity that holds us back, and
freedom to step into God's wild and holy call in our lives. Jess
and Hayley answer difficult questions that so many women have asked
them over the years, including: How do I compete with the burden of
expectation of what women are "supposed" to be? Where do I actually
fit in? How can I start living out my God-given identity every day
of my life? With fresh biblical insight tracing all the way back to
Eve and a treasury of practical application, Jess and Hayley reveal
how women today can walk in the true liberty we already have in
Jesus--because you certainly don't have to quiet the voice that God
gave you when he created you to sing. Wild and Free will help you
shake off the lies of insecurity in your life and step forward to
maximize your God-given influence for his glory and the world's
good.
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.
