Details: The Confident Woman is a book every woman needs to read! Joyce opens up and allows for a full understanding to why woman struggle with things such as fear, anxiety, lonliness, our past, our appearance, etc. and how to overcome them. Not to say these things won't come up and be an issue, but Joyce guides, with scripture, how to avoid allowing these things defeat you. Very helpful tool to every woman! Good, easy read! |

Details: I adore Joyce Meyer. I've read a few of her books and own one "Starting Your Day Right," which I enjoy immensley.
However, THIS book, THE CONFIDENT WOMAN is hands-down, one of the BEST books I've EVER read!
Truth be known, I've always been a bit of a feminist; not a bra-burning, man-hating feminist, but a woman who strongly believed (and still does) that us women deserve equal treatment, rights and opportunities! After reading this book, I'm even more convinced that my passion for women's equality and women's rights is absolutely the Christian thing to feel/do!
I've always been a Christian, but often felt conflicted about the two; being both a Christian and a feminist, the two just don't mix--or so I thought!
Joyce Meyer, and this book, have proved me wrong! This book has helped me become easier on myself, those around me, and especially, easier on the men in my life. It is NOT weak to need a man, nor is it weak for them to need us women; and we do--we all need each other, and that's EXACTLY the way God intended it to be--reading this book drove that point home for me.
Joyce speaks and writes from the heart using personal experience, Biblical Scripture (which admittedly, I'm not as familiar with on my own as I'd like to be), and lot of honesty. I found myself blown away by almost every page!
I even read parts of it out loud to my fiancee' (who at times is intimidated by my feminsim) and he thoroughly enjoyed it! He said that this book makes complete and total sense to him, and he's not a book person, nor a real church going man (although he is a Christian!), so I say, any book that can get through to my fiancee' and open his mind about looking at things a different way, well, that book is a real winner to me! My fiancee' is a wonderful man, by the way, just not an avid reader like I am! LOL!
Anyway, Joyce speaks about Biblical proof that women are equal, real, flawed and amazing; all at the same time. She talks about the REAL difference between confidence and ego; and there is a huge difference!
She teaches you (or reminds you rather) to put your real and truest confidence in Christ; and that as long as you have that (and I always have), you will have confidence in yourself. This book gives you tools to boost your confidence and ways to be assertive and honest, without being bratty, bossy or otherwise. As she says "the boss doesn't have to be bossy," very true!
I think this book is actually great for everyone; not just women. I think any open-minded man would enjoy this too! This book is really a guide on how to live an open, honest, confident life based in Christ while believing in Him, yourself, and living the Golden Rule.
Joyce speaks many times about how EACH of us (women and men) are to be treated wtih love, kindness and respect; and that we shouldn't judge one another based on our genders alone. So very true! A very poingnant and universal message that I feel the entire world needs!
If you're a Christian, a Joyce Meyer fan, new to her works, or just a woman looking for a great, insightful, inspirational and informative read; I would highly reccomend this book!
I agree that it would make a great gift for anyone; especially women! Women need this message, and we need to stop apologizing for asking(or just taking, in some cases) for what God intended us to have in the first place; a life filled with love, respect, purpose, honesty, joy and confidence!
Thanks, Joyce, for all of the great reminders, real insights and inspiration! This book has changed my life for the better! |
