Joyce Meyer: A Life of Redemption and Destiny
Joyce Meyer suffered through many years of extreme sexual and emotional abuse, only to discover a loving God who responded to her prayers, changing her mind, her spirit, and, eventually, the course of her life.
You don't need to suffer any longer from alcoholism, substance abuse, poverty, bad relationships, family dysfunction, sexual harassment, and other life-destroying issues. Through her personal life and experiences, you will find strength and courage so that you, too, can:
" Stop the endless cycle of pain.
" Fulfill God's destiny for your life.
" Overcome personal weaknesses.
" Experience genuine forgiveness.
" See God use you in miraculous ways.
" Find freedom from depression and abuse.
" Conquer timidity and helpless dependency.
Both men and women alike will find that God can-and does-use anyone, no matter how bad his or her past circumstances may be, to accomplish truly astonishing and miraculous things.
Break free from the bondage of your past!

True connection.
Joyce's early life was like mine. I have gained so much hope and renewal that my circumstances can change and there is nothing I can't do with God behind me pushing me forward. Thank you, Joyce Meyer, for being who you are and that is A TRUE WOMAN OF FAITH AND STRENGTH.

Richard Young’s autobiographies of famous preachers is always an inspiring and easy read. I loved his books since I read his first one about Joel Osteen. A glimpse into the life of Joyce Meyer gives hope and faith about God’s destiny for our own lives.

I read this because I know little about the Joyce Meyer story and it happened to catch my eye at our little branch library. I guess as a summary of JM's life and ministry to date (2008 ish), it was pretty comprehensive, so yay for that. But I (whingey person that I am) have some gripes.
Firstly, my usual complaint about editors. DO YOUR JOLLY JOB! Someone else obviously felt the same as me about this because they have used a pencil to correct quite a lot of stuff in the early parts of this book. AND THEN THEY GAVE UP! That's how bad it was. I know I'm not the best at grammar, and perhaps this review just begs to be edited, but a book that someone actually paid for... I expect better.
As for content and style... Brief, informative, matter-of-fact. Perhaps lacking emotion, but acceptable for my purposes. I guess I would say it was an attempt at an impartial recounting of facts, but written by someone who basically approves of JM in general.

Good background into Joyce's life and work but probably a bit too much on justifying her financial backing. Other than that I enjoyed it.
