Brown is known as a Lifestyle Diva. Through her TV shows, books, blogs and social platforms she offers her 1+ million fans both inspiration and guidance on how to create a rich, abundant life decorating their homes, creating fabulous meals and hosting memorable events. However, these are the small things that decorate our lives. Brown believes that the real beauty, the real color, can only be achieved by tuning into the ultimate expert-God. Brown shares how she has found God outside the church walls by embracing the sacred as a natural part of everyday life.
DARE TO SEE includes 30 personal essays that illuminate how Brown has found Gods presence in her own real-life experiences from early childhood to the present. From being a victim of a drive-by shooting, experiencing incredible career success or searching for family fulfillment, Browns stories will resonate with anyone whose life has been touched by doubt, hurt, defeat, understanding, love, abundance and hope.
In DARE TO SEE, Brown shows us how to discover God everywhere we go and in nearly everything we do as we learn to pay attention, slow down, live with purpose, and fully, joyfully see all weve been given.

To Meredith Hyatt Corbin, who was born from my heart after much prayer You, my love, are truly heaven sent
I have been blessed.
When I feel lonely, I look to God.
When I feel happy, I look to God.
When I am ashamed, I look to God.
When I feel overwhelmed, I look to God.
When I am bursting with joy, I look to God.
When I am all choked up because I feel so warm and fuzzy and full of light, I look to God.
I have been blessed with an intimate walk with God from a young age.
We are partners and collaborators, He and I.
He leads. I walk.
He says jump. I leap.
I turn away.
He jumps in my path and pulls me forward.
I was and still am amazed by the unconditional love and acceptance and celebration I feel shining on me from on high.
No matter what my condition:
Middle child
Struggling teen
Newcomer
Champion
Lover
Mother
TV personality
Loser
Loner
Sister
Wife
I get my walking papers, and find my way by following His beam.
He meets me where I am over and over again.
How?
How, you ask?
How do I know?
Because God is BIGGER than I am.
Deeper than I am.
Better than I am.
He is constant and relentless.
And He always knows best.
My God whispers, He yells, He shines, He cajoles, He pleads, He giggles.
I find Him in the most unexpected places, the most hysterical of situations, in many somber moments.
In Dare to See, I want to share with you some of the points in my life where I have been blessed with Gods grace,
in obvious ways,
in subtle ways,
and always in definitive ways.
These moments have shaped my character, my heart, my lifes path, and my souls journey. They have touched my being in ways unimaginable.
Sometimes His road map has been in plain sight.
Other times I have run from it.
Sometimes it has been a joy to receive.
Other times it has been revealed through heartbreaking moments.
Whether I am hiding from it or seeking it, it always finds me in a place I have come to know as the space between.
It is my hope that through sharing these tales, I can help you learn how to develop that muscle of recognition. You can improve your talent of dancing closer with faith, by opening up and into His care and love and direction and conversations with you in the simplest, everyday details.
I have been blessed.
I am a cook, a crafter, a life stylist, a professional homemaker. I have spent twenty years teaching domestic how-to that attempts to improve peoples everyday home life.
Today I hope that through the art of storytelling I can reveal another layer of how to improve your everyday life by walking closer as you experience Gods grace in your own space between.
I hope that you may be able to hear my voice as you read.
I hope that you might feel my heart as you read.
I hope that you might know my desperate need for you to understand God better as you read.
It is my prayer that these stories will move you to understand you are never alone.
It is my prayer that these stories will inspire you to be on the lookout for your blessings.
It is my prayer that you will gain insight into how to recognize His message created just for you and with you.
God has a how-to plan for you that is bigger, better, and more fulfilling than you or I could ever imagine.
His step-by-step instructions are right there, waiting for you.
You just have to seek, and you shall find.
And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way, walk in it, when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.
I SAIAH 30:21 ESV
I had given myself a tight deadline to come up with the title and subtitle for this book. For some reason, I really believed a title would shape the direction, the substance, the way I would hug the narrative as I wrote. I felt, if I could nail the title, I would know how to proceed or even to proceed with the lofty goal of trying to highlight my lifes powerful moments with God by writing simple essays and turning them into a book. I prayed. I cried. I thought I had it. I did not. I would write words on a big white board, hoping to find a combo that would stick.
I would stop mid conversation, turn to my husband, and blurt out a title. I went to bed thinking about it. I woke up daydreaming about it. How could these collections of mismatched stories have a through-line, a theme, that would be universal enough to fit under one title, or for that matter, universal enough to mean anything to anyone else other than to me.
