As the mom of a teenage girl, I was so excited when Moody Publishers asked me to review Hannah Farver’s new release, Uncompromising: A Heart Claimed by a Radical Love.
Hannah, a freshman at Patrick Henry College who loves Jesus passionately, shares in this book about why it is so important for girls today to KNOW Jesus in a personal way and have their deepest needs met by a personal relationship with Him.
The book deals with everything from purity to modesty to friendship to self-esteem. Hannah shares her own struggles as well as the struggles of several of her friends as she journeys through issues that every girl faces in the world today. Discussion questions are provided at the end of the book which correlate with each chapter making it a perfect option for a small group Bible study.
I am planning to read the book with Olivia this summer! And I am hoping to use it in a small group setting this fall!
I was able to finish reading it as we were traveling through so many different states over the past several days, and I wanted to take a few minutes to let you all know what a great book it is!
I am thankful for girls like Hannah, and I am praying that Olivia can follow in her footsteps as a Christian girl with a heart that has been claimed by a radical love!
If you’re looking for a great resource to use with the girls in your church, I highly recommend checking this book out!
Hannah’s blog can be accessed by clicking HERE.
This is a blog I want Olivia to start following! As a mom, I can serve as a guide for Olivia but a young woman like Hannah Farver is what I long for in Olivia’s life….a true role model who can show her the love of Jesus in a way that is relevant, meaningful, and life-changing!
Happy reading!
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven!
