The Resolution for Women, New Revised Edition

by Priscilla Shirer, Stephen Kendrick (Foreword by), Alex Kendrick (Foreword by)

Overview

A common thread runs through the life of those women who leave a lasting impact on others. Resolve. It doesn’t make them perfect women, just purposeful women—women who are intentional about charting the pathway of their lives in the direction of God’s promises.

Living with this kind of intentionality is what this book is all about.

Quickly a New York Times bestseller when it was first published, The Resolution for Women returns in this newly revised edition, updated with ten years’ worth of fresh insights and reflections on what it means to chart a steady course through disruptive, conflicting times.

Be part of another generation inspired to anchor each day and each part of their lives in the bedrock of biblical truth. Together, these resolutions become not only the commitments we make but the legacy we create, the treasures we strategically place in the path for others to follow.
