Holley Gerth is a best-selling author, renowned speaker, life coach, and counselor. However, in this book she sets that all aside and simply shares her most vulnerable moments. She reminds us that \u201cHe is made perfect in our weaknesses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gerth writes each chapter so that they seem to be a collection of loosely connected thoughts, covering a myriad of topics such as prayer, having a child-like faith, facing conflict when you have been hurt, and even her own journey with infertility.<\/p>\n<p>As a celebration of everything that makes women unique, Gerth challenges her readers to see themselves as powerful, not because of their strengths but because of their weaknesses. Our places of hurt and brokenness are the very places that God can use us the most, and Gerth encourages us to not run from those places but settle in and allow God to change our hearts through the life we experience.<\/p>\n<p>Each chapter begins with a quote from a fellow female author, and at the end of the book you will find discussion questions for each chapter. You can also order the devotional e-book, \u201cStrong, Brave, Loved: 21 Days Ways to Live a Fierce Hearted Life\u201d, to supplement your small group or Women\u2019s ministry.<\/p>\n<p>This is a great book for any woman who is needing a little encouragement, a little love, and a little gumption.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"excerpt","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":4156,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","slim_seo":{"title":"Fierce Hearted- Book Review - IPHC Discipleship Ministries","description":"Book authored by Holley Gerth Article written by Kaleigh Hamilton &nbsp; A Fiercehearted Woman . . .

Sabe que el amor es un riesgo, pero de todos modos llega. Entiende que la bondad requiere coraje real. Cree lo imposible. Peleas como si fuera imparable. Se atreve a encontrar la belleza en un alma harapienta. Esc\u00e1ndalo de manera escandalosa sobre fr\u00edo. Prueba la vida como un milagro breve, dulce y salado. Piel sus rodillas, tiene cicatrices que dan testimonio. Defiende como un guerrero y llora como una ni\u00f1a. Hace suave lo nuevo fuerte, lo peque\u00f1o nuevo grande, ordinario lo nuevo extraordinario. Ve arrugas en una cara como l\u00edneas en una historia de victoria. Nunca se rinde, nunca se da por vencido, nunca abandona. Persigue a Jes\u00fas con un tierno salvajismo que cambia el mundo. Vive en tu barrio, o ni siquiera en tu continente. Te mir\u00e9 desde el espejo esta ma\u00f1ana. . . Y a\u00fan no ha visto completamente la fuerza que su Dios de dispersi\u00f3n de estrellas, de movimiento de monta\u00f1as, de caminar por el agua, cre\u00f3 para ser. <em>Fiercehearted<\/em> nos da una mirada \u00fanica y personal detr\u00e1s de la cortina y en la vida cotidiana de una mujer que est\u00e1 buscando vivir plenamente para Cristo. Holley Gerth es un autor de gran \u00e9xito de ventas, orador reconocido, entrenador de vida y consejero. Sin embargo, en este libro, ella deja eso de lado y simplemente comparte sus momentos m\u00e1s vulnerables. Ella nos recuerda que \"\u00c9l es perfecto en nuestras debilidades\". Gerth escribe cada cap\u00edtulo para que parezcan ser una colecci\u00f3n de pensamientos vagamente conectados, que cubren una gran variedad de temas como la oraci\u00f3n, tener una fe infantil, enfrentar el conflicto cuando Usted ha sido herido, e incluso su propio viaje con infertilidad. Como celebraci\u00f3n de todo lo que hace que las mujeres sean \u00fanicas, Gerth desaf\u00eda a sus lectores a verse a s\u00ed mismas como poderosas, no por sus fortalezas sino por sus debilidades. Nuestros lugares de dolor y quebrantamiento son los lugares en los que Dios nos puede usar m\u00e1s, y Gerth nos alienta a no salir de esos lugares, sino a acomodarnos y permitir que Dios cambie nuestros corazones a trav\u00e9s de la vida que experimentamos. Cada cap\u00edtulo comienza con una cita de una autora y, al final del libro, encontrar\u00e1 preguntas de discusi\u00f3n para cada cap\u00edtulo. Tambi\u00e9n puede solicitar el libro electr\u00f3nico devocional, \u201cFuerte, valiente, querido: 21 d\u00edas de maneras de vivir una vida de coraz\u00f3n feroz\u201d, para complementar su peque\u00f1o grupo o el ministerio de mujeres. Este es un gran libro para cualquier mujer que necesite un poco de \u00e1nimo, un poco de amor y un poco de humor.","author_name":"Kaleigh Hamilton","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4T9u2-151","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":6596,"url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/2020\/04\/28\/discipleship-ministries-hires-new-executive-assistant\/","url_meta":{"origin":4155,"position":0},"title":"Discipleship Ministries Hires New Executive Assistant","author":"jbland","date":"April 28, 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"Bishop Tommy McGhee and Discipleship Ministries are pleased to announce Kaleigh Hamilton as the new Executive Assistant to Bishop McGhee.
