Grasp Your Captivating Heart: Unveil The Beauty, Romance, And Adventure Of A Womans Soul Produced By Stasi Eldredge Classified In Brochure
book spoke to my heart! defiantly a book to read and pick up every few years as a reminder of who God created you to be.
Excellent book! A must read for every female regardless of age, I would encourage a mother/daughter read for every young teenage girl, The book identifies three questions every female has and where to find the answers to those questions as well as where not to seek those answers.
Sometimes we as women look in the mirror and judge ourselves by what we see, This book talks about not only the natural beauty that we carry on the outside however more importantly, and to the point, the beauty that is on the inside.
This book edifies and encourages women to look at our wounds that keep us from stepping freely into our full destiny.
The examples held up show the fearlessness of ordinary women both biblical and contemporary to help women to understand the truths put forth.
It talks about our purpose as individuals, Recognizing the great need of those around us and the world to what we have to offer: our beauty and purpose regardless of what that purpose is.
From home maker to business owner to CEO of a major corporation, we are image bearers of God, I highly recommend this book to both genders! Femininity Rules! Short and sweet version of captivating, Good starting place! Once I got over the overly girly/cheesy pictures that fill the book, I liked it, It was refreshing to read about the real substance of romance as something not commercially cheapened and ridiculous but as something essential to how women function precisely because of the way that God functions.
For that alone I'm thankful to Dani for sharing the book with me, I think I needed it right about that time, This book will really force you to look inside yourself, My friend gave me this book a few years ago and I have put off reading it since it is not my type of book at all.
I finally read it since she asked about it,
I have a hard time with books about religion
unless they are discussing it historically, The writing was well done and I did not notice grammar errors or things like that, The pictures were my favorite part of the book so many pretty places, I read the summary at the back of the book and I felt oh yes, I have to read this one.
I bought it and was dissappointed, All the rush for nothing, Maybe if I read it again, I may get that supposedly wow message or not, The book was just 'ok, '
REREAD
I understand better some of the points in the book, however there seem a disconnect when the author explained about my captivating heart.
Was this written to generate interest for Captivating or to get the attention that I supposed Captivating received This little book has helped me to understand my relationship with God so much better.
You know how we're always trying to figure out what we've inherited from our parents This book is all about what women have inherited from God.
Not as stereotypical as I expected but not a great read, Zabierałam się za tę książkę zerazy, Dopiero za ostatnim coś zaiskrzyło, Warto było ją przeczytać, Często czujemy się niekochane, niewartościowe, zagubione, zamieszane w oczekiwaniach, Ta książka mówi prosto do kobiecego serca, z delikatnością, miłością i czułością,
Polecam!
,/I SMILED THROUGH THE TEARS AS THIS BOOK SPOKE TO ME SO VIVIDLY Let's see if it is as infuriating as I think it will be.
