Don't Settle for Safe: Embracing the Uncomfortable to Become Unstoppable
Don't Settle for Safe: Embracing the Uncomfortable to Become Unstoppable | Sarah Jakes Roberts
9 posts | 4 read | 2 reading | 3 to read
Popular speaker and author Sarah Jakes Roberts shows women they are not disqualified by their pain and failures and offers encouragement and strength to believe God s best is still possible. Everyone has experiences in their lives that stop them in their tracks and become burdens they carry with them everywhere they go. No one knows this better than Sarah Jakes Roberts. Pregnant at fourteen, married by nineteen, divorced by twenty-two, and all while under the intense spotlight of being Bishop T.D. Jakes s daughter, Sarah knows what it is to feel buried by failure and aching pain. But when her journey brought her to faith s fork in the road, Sarah found she had to choose between staying in the comfort of the pain she knew or daring to make new wounds and move forward. Now Sarah shares the numerous life lessons she s learned along the way with other women also struggling to believe they re not disqualified by their pain and past mistakes. She delves into topics such as allowing the past to empower the present, choosing to step forward while still being afraid, facing struggles surrounded by community, finding intimacy with God outside preconceived notions of what it has to look like, and learning to focus on others. With deeply personal stories of her own, Sarah helps readers find their way to the right perspective and the confidence to walk toward the best God has for them."

I didn‘t know much about Sarah Jakes Roberts‘ story prior to this book. I appreciated her point of view especially considering what she‘s been through (she‘s the daughter of famous pastor T D Jakes, and got pregnant at 14). The final chapters were packed with so many powerful statements that I had to start taking notes. I listened on audio and the narration was great. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Adding the first book in bingo which is Selfcare. This one was easy. I've already reviewed this so I won't again but Sara Jake's Robert's is amazing in sharing her experiences and it can help with your own. @Bwill910 @QuarantinedBookworm @Ree21 @DrShanJones @Kfjohnsonbooks

"Live in the moment without fear or concern of what would happen next. Expecting pain in the future takes away your joy in the present. Worrying steals joy that is already yours."
