Fierce Hearted {Book Review}

Fierce Hearted
by Holley Gerth

I’ve been going through something big in my life.  It’s felt so uncertain but exciting.  You can read about it here.

When I saw this book up for review, I knew I needed to read it.  God knew I needed to read it.  The words Holley wrote spoke to my heart during this new season I find myself in.  This book is raw.  It’s real.  It’s brave.  And it’s what my heart needed.

As I was reading, I just kept saying, “Me too!”.

When you read this book, be prepared to feel like you are sitting and chatting with your best friends.  Holley is so open and vulnerable with her words.  It felt like every chapter was written for something I had previously or am currently struggling with.  It felt as if she had gotten into my head and could see my heart, speaking directly into my insecurities.

Y’all, we don’t have to be tied to our past or scared of our future.  We can just embrace ourselves and our lives right where we are right now.  And just believe in the woman God has created us to be.

This quote is one of my favorites from the book…

I am slowly learning to be a woman who has the gumption (as we say in the South) to set things down so she may move forward, so she may be present.

If there is one thing I’m not good at, it’s setting things down and moving forward.  I’m more of a relive-it-every-single-day kinda girl.  That just keeps us tied to our past and bogs us down.  Through Holley’s precious words, I’ve learned I need to intentionally sit things down and move forward.

This book, oh this book, I highly recommend it for any woman who wants to become who God created her to be.  You’ll finish it and be excited to reread it again!
