From the moment a woman awakes until she falls, exhausted, on her pillow, one question plagues her at every turn: “Am I enough?” From her appearance and relationships to her career and housekeeping, she fears the answer is “no.” But in her book I Am, author Michele Cushatt reminds us that God says otherwise, and believing his words can set us free.
I Am helps women end the barrage of negative self-talk and replace it with an empowering new narrative. You'll exchange lies for truth, insecurity for a rock-solid identity, and break free from the distorted messages that have held you hostage for too long.
From the moment a woman wakes until she falls, exhausted, on her pillow, one question plagues her at every turn: Am I enough?
The pressure to do more, be more has never been more intense. Online marketing. Self-help books. Movies, magazines, and gym memberships. Even church attendance and social media streams have become a means of comparing ourselves to impossible standards. Am I pretty enough? Hip enough? Spiritual enough?
We fear the answer is "No."
When a brutal bout with cancer changed how she looked, talked, and lived, Michele Cushatt embarked on a soul-deep journey to rediscover herself. The typical self-esteem strategies and positivity plans weren't enough. Instead, she needed a new foundation, one that wouldn't prove flimsy when faced with the onslaught of day-to-day life.
With raw personal stories, profound biblical teaching, and radical truths on which to rebuild your life, I Am will help you:
- Refuse to ride the rollercoaster of others' opinions and start believing what God says about you.
- Stop agonizing over past regrets and failures and make peace with God's sovereign plan for your life.
- Leave insecurity behind as you exchange temporary fixes for an identity established on God's unchanging affection.
I Am reminds us that our value isn't found in our talents, achievements, relationships, or appearance. It is instead found in a God who chose us, sent us, and promised to be with us--forever.
