It's time to Discover Your True Worth. Join Lindsay Roberts as she invites you to step into your God-given purpose and become all that He has called you to be.
Before his death, Oral Roberts commissioned his daughter-in-law Lindsay with what he believed to be a mandate from God: Lindsay was called to help women discover who they are in Christ, establish them in their powerful identity in Him, and help them become the women God created them to be--women of true worth.
Since that day, Lindsay has made it her mission to share that powerful message with women around the world. She believes that as women, we must discover who we are and what we're made of in order to move forward in all God wants us to become--in business, in the church, in our families, in our communities, and beyond.
Within the pages of Discover Your True Worth, Lindsay will empower you to:
Embrace God's grace to turn the pain of your past into the stepping stones of your future Welcome your God-given calling with confidence and courage Become a force for God and play a part in preparing His kingdom here on earth This book is for any woman who has ever feared, fallen, failed, prayed, hoped, loved, lost, been discouraged, risked a dream, or wondered if she matters. Are you ready to Discover Your True Worth?
Praise for Discover Your True Worth:
"I see the message in Discover Your True Worth as a similar handbook [to Woman, Thou Art Loosed], one that will guide women who are on the journey to becoming all that God created them to be and to making a difference in every facet of life and every sphere of influence."
--Bishop T.D. Jakes, New York Times bestselling author
"As a child of God, we must understand our worth. Lindsay encourages us to discover who we are, who we are made in the image of, and what our useful purpose is! So many of us, myself included, have struggled to find our place in the 'big scheme of things' because we get sidetracked by our failures and mistakes. We think there's no way God could use a broken vessel like me in His mighty work. That's what Lindsay shows us: His power is made perfect in our weakness, misfortunes, mistakes, and mishaps."
--Miss Kay Robertson, matriarch of the Robertson family, author, speaker, flawed but favored
“Discover Your True Worth” by Lindsay Roberts is a book about women finding their worth in Christ. Roberts utilizes a variety of women in the Bible to show the diversity of women and how each unique person has a special place in Christ and can use their specific gifts to further the kingdom.
It took me a little bit to get my thoughts together enough to write this review. On one hand, Roberts has clearly done her research and believes in her mission to empower women. On the other hand, she is clearly rooted in the prosperity gospel (look up her father-in-law if you want a deep dive into the topic). While I don’t support the prosperity gospel movement, there were some truths and poignant thoughts throughout the book, which leads me to my struggle.
I think if you can separate the biblical truths from the health and wealth moments, then I think this book can be a constructive read for women looking for encouragement. However, a less mature faith may not be able to distinguish between the moments of encouragement and the moments of false promises that things will go well if you’re doing things “right.”
Unfortunately, this book was a 2.5 star read for me that I rounded up to 3 stars. I wanted to love it, but I guess I didn’t realize the full author background before diving in. Thanks to NetGalley and Nelson Books for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
The insight Lindsay Roberts has on various women of worth (or not of worth) among the Bible characters is enlightening. Such biblical figures as Susanna, Bathsheba, Esther, Deborah (one of my favorites) and others show us, says Roberts, how they shone even in every day situations. For example, Esther was beautiful, not as an ornament but for a vastly greater task. Read and find out! As women of faith combined with the acknowledgement of our worth, especially in God's eyes, we are "destined for victory". When God puts words in our minds, hearts, and mouth, we can speak into others and have great satisfaction in word and deed as we deliver in humility and faith. It is a great thing to be able to realize our true worth and then be used mightily by the Lord. You just never know...miracles could happen.

Discover Your True Worth is a pilgrimage through the lives of many key women in the Bible as well as Lindsay Roberts and her mother in law Evelyn Roberts. Lindsay weaves scripture verses throughout the book to point us to Jesus and the incredible worth He sees in us as women. I definitely recommend this book! It has helped me to realize that you can face the tragedies of life with courage and a purpose with the insight that the best is yet to come. I love that Lindsay includes a question section at the end of the book that gives us the opportunity to work back through each chapter and answer questions that help us think of how our worth and those around us can further God’s kingdom. As Lindsay reminds us through the book, God sees us as women of worth and has a divine purpose to carry out through our lives. It is our responsibility to answer that call not by being perfect but by seeking Him along each path of our lives.
A faith-fuelling, truth-telling, powerful read for women, much needed for today! It's more than laying out the biblical truths of a woman's worth in Christ and through Christ; this book really reminded me of God's majesty and wonder and intentions to honour and use women as part of His glorious plan throughout humanity's timeline. And it continues with us, today. Loved the deep scriptural wisdom and insight of key women in the Bible, the personal stories and also the discoveries in today's science that just show how Almighty God is (e.g. the DNA in spit!)
I am challenged (in such a good way), encouraged and inspired by Lindsay's writing and her call for Kingdom "women of substance".
This book would also make a great read for a Christian Women's Book Club or Study Group, and the included Discovery Guide for each chapter aids this beautifully.
“Discover Your True Worth” is a must read! It’s encouraging, informative and anointed. This book will help you to stir yourself up in the Lord, and easily guide you in the right direction to take the steps into becoming whom God has intended you to be. A page turner for sure, and not just for women! Men will be encouraged and gain healing and confidence from this pioneer in teaching the Word of God and inspirational author.
Discovering your true worth is encouraging and uplifting and a must read for every women. To be inspired & encouraged to keep moving forward to God and strengthen our relationship. It's a book to give us hope that we are not perfect and we can still be that strong women of God that He wants us be. It's a must read book.
Thank you to NetGalley and Nelson Books for allowing me to read this ARC of Discover Your True Worth. My thoughts are my own.
Using examples of women from the Bible and from her own life, Lindsay Roberts writes how women can be confident in who God created then to be. She encourages women to find their value in God and points to these godly characters as role models of the faith.
Some of it feels a little long, and while I didn't agree with everything written, I do believe it is a good reminder.
I would recommend this book to women who are questioning their value or their station in life.
A discussion guide is included at the back of the book for deeper reflection.
I am currently finished reading this, it is so encouraging and uplifting already and I am have shared with other women who may need encouragement as well. Highly recommend
