Drop the Self-Help and Look to God Who Speaks a Better Word

Women thrive on encouragement, connection, and support. And yet, this desire leads many to be culturally catechized by a multibillion dollar self-help industry. Because foolish motivational messages flow freely from the world like a dripping faucet and are repeated by the person in the mirror, women remain discouraged, disconnected, and alone. If women believe happiness and success are their responsibility, they will assume discouragement must be too. 

Women need better news. In this hope-filled book, Lindsey Carlson leads weak and weary women to the well to find better refreshment in the living water of Christ, who speaks a better word of encouragement than the world. As women are connected to God’s promises and God’s people, they will be better encouraged to endure with their hope fixed on Christ.

  • Hope for Women Bruised by Self-Help: Written for discouraged Christian women who need better encouragement they can’t provide themselves, but who are hesitant to trust good encouragement exists 
  • Practical and Approachable: Offers relatable stories and counsel to teach women how to biblically discern truth from worldly philosophy in messages of encouragement and to provide confident assurance in God’s promises of power, strength, comfort, and hope
  • For the Building Up of the Church: Challenges Christians to become better encouragers within their family, the local church, and their communities
