Summary

Have you ever felt like you were living someone else's script? That it's easier to please others than to honestly admit to yourself what you truly want? 

Why does choosing yourself so often come with guilt, while the right to be who you are seems to require constant justification? What would happen if you let go of other people's expectations and asked, perhaps for the first time: who am I when I'm no longer trying to be "good enough"?

This book is not about becoming better. It is about stopping the habit of hiding who you really are. "The Courage to Be Yourself" is a deep and moving story of inner growth, of stepping out of the "good girl" role, releasing the weight of expectations, and returning to your authentic self.
You may recognize yourself in these pages – in the exhaustion of constant emotional responsibility, in the need to feel needed, in the fear of saying "no", in the desire to please so you won't lose love. But step by step, you will begin to see something else: an inner strength, a quiet knowing, a personal truth that no one but you has the right to define.

You don't need to earn the right to be yourself. It's already yours.

    We need a parenting revolution!  
    Most parenting approaches end up encouraging children to ask the wrong questions about life: What’s in it for me? Are you going to pay me for that? What’s the minimum I need to do to get by? 
    But God’s Word gives us a better way to parent, one that builds strong internal motivation in children. When parents change the way they parent, kids change the way they live. This practical book explores a theology of internal motivation and then gives parents real-life solutions to equip their kids for life. 
    You’ll learn . . .  
    •          how to parent in ways that build internal motivation so that kids don’t have to rely on you to get things done. 
    •          the four promptings of the conscience and how to coordinate your parenting to take advantage of them. 
    •          ways to energize your spiritual training with fun and creativity. 
    •          how to help children respond to mistakes instead of blaming, defending, or justifying. 
    The greatest gift you can give your child is strong moral and spiritual development—this book shows you how. Every chapter includes practical examples of families applying the Bible to their current issues. 
    Join the revolution!
