Growing Up Ziglar

No one can tell you who you are. It doesnt matter who your parents are or where you come from; youre the only one who gets to decide who youre going to be. Few people can demonstrate that better than Julie Ziglar Norman. The daughter of one of Americas most well-known and loved motivators, Julie found God where most of us do: somewhere in between the lofty ideal were told about and the big mess we often make of our lives.

Theres nothing like living in that sweet place of Gods grace, mercy, and love, escaping our self-imposed prison of regret and shame. Julie Ziglar Normans brave testimony shines with the magnificent light of God, a light that seems to burn brighter with every chapter she writes and every personal error of judgment she reveals. God is more efficient in the restore and renew process than any counselor or friend could possibly be, though He may use a counselor or friend along the way. Theres been no book that describes that process as succinctly as Growing up Ziglar: A Daughters Broken Path from Heartache to Hope. Thank you, Julie!

Growing Up Ziglar I have never read a book where the author was more transparent and willing to share the real journey of their life.
