Holley Gerth - Youre Already Amazing Lifegrowth Guide: Embracing Who You Are, Becoming All God Created You to Be

Pssst ... pull up a chair and Ill tell you a secret. Youd better lean in close for this one.

Ready?

You dont have to do more, be more, have more.

Im sure there are security alarms going off somewhere. You should probably hide this book when your in-laws come over. And this could be the makings of a Sunday morning scandal.

But its true.

Its the kind of true that will change your life, set you free, and make you wake up smiling for the first time in a long time. I know because thats what it did for me (and believe me, for this nonmorning girl thats nothing short of miraculous). Ive seen it happen to a lot of other women too. Ive read it in their words through thousands of comments on my blog. Ive seen it in their faces on the couch in my counseling office. Ive heard it in a new kind of laughter over coffee with friends.

So watch out, sister. If you keep reading, you just might be next.

Even if weve never met, I know this about you: youre a daughter of God, a holy princess, a woman created with strengths youve yet to fully grasp and a story thats still being written by the divine Author himself. And if you really take hold of who you are and what youre called to do, there will be no stopping you. Thats because theres no stopping him in you and hes got bigger plans for your life than youve even imagined.

Okay, youve been warned.

If youre feeling brave, I dare you to read on...

Holley Gerth, Youre Already Amazing

Since I first wrote the words you just read from You re Already Amazing , almost one hundred thousand women have accepted my dare to embrace who they are and become all God created them to be. As I connected with many of them as an author, life coach, and speaker, I often heard comments like these:

• I want to do Youre Already Amazing as a study at my church or with a group of friends, but Im not sure how.
• Im interested in life coaching so I can apply the message in deeper ways, but I dont have the time or money.
• Im rereading the book because it helped me so much, and I wish there were even more to go with it.

This LifeGrowth Guide is a response to all of the above. It builds on the foundation of Youre Already Amazing by giving you everything you need to do the book as a group study. It also offers brand-new concepts and even more ways to apply the message so you feel like you have your own personal life coach every step of the way. And it includes bonus material and activities you wont find anywhere else.

Every session has these elements:

• links to short videos that will guide you through the material
• essential excerpts and overviews of concepts from Youre Already Amazing
• questions for groups to discuss or individuals to reflect on
• interactive tools based on my training as a counselor and life coach to help you apply what youre reading
• optional creative activities you can do with a group or on your own
• prompts for personal journaling

After connecting with women all over the world, I know this: youre busy, and you need to be sure your time, energy, and financial resources are spent wisely. Thats why Im committed to making sure this LifeGrowth Guide wont just give you more informationit will lead to true transformation.

You really can know who God created you to be and what hes called you to do, and you really can have a realistic plan for pursuing his purpose for you. I know thats true because Ive already seen thousands of womens lives changed in powerful ways.

Now its your turn.
