I enjoy this book.
I wouldn't say it's life changing or amazing or wonderful - but it's enjoyable. It's inspiring but not in a big, go change the world way - in a small, you're doing good way.
I've read the book more than once and some of my favorite quotes from any Christian 'self-help' books are in this one. And perhaps reading it at another time left me with a stronger impression - this time, though, it was nicely placed as a good solidifier.

Looking forward to digging into this book.... I am currently on page 3. This is my first book to read from Pam Farrel.

Had really excellent points and certain chapters I loved and gained a lot of knowledge from. However, I didn't always enjoy that the majority of the chapters are short personal stories and anecdotes to convey a specific point. I would recommend this book, just didn't really love the style of writing. If it was possible I would give this a 3.75 stars.

I read the first edition of this book... and have re-read it countless time since! I've used it over and over for discipleship and training up leaders in our women's ministry. Inspiring book! My first "Farrel" title and have read most of their books since. Thankful for Pam's ministry of words! "One Heart impassioned by God CAN make a difference!" - from Woman of Influence. Read it! You'll love it!

Excellent book I want to give to every woman I know! I almost gave my copy to my sister, then realized I couldn't part with my copy, so I bought another one for her. Great book to read alone or in a group!
