Customer Reviews

Excellent book -- great for women of all ages

This is my second book by Joyce Meyer--my first was "Battlefields of the Mind," which I still use as a reference/text book! Joyce has a way of teaching God's Word that is practical and easy to apply to our every day life. "The Confident Woman" is another daily guide. But, what I liked most about this book is that it puts revolutionary feminism into a Godly context. Joyce is awesome! "The Confident Woman" is a book that has something for every woman--whether you see yourself as a liberated woman or whether you see yourself as oppressed by society and/or by men, your mind will be renewed by the Word that Joyce uses to minister God's love. In her chapter entitled "Setting The Record Straight," Joyce boldly states that: "I believe that Satan has methodicaly taken centuries to build wrong thinking about women into the minds of society. This wrong thinking has caused women to be mistreated, and in turn, has caused women to lack confidence." This book is a must read! Be blessed!

Excellent book!

This was my first introduction to Joyce, even though I am a Christian woman. I'd never read any of her books or seen her television program "Enjoying Everyday Life." But now I'm looking forward to much more from her! I believe Joyce truly has a gift for writing, teaching and preaching! She's honest, truthful, practical and bold in her message. If you hunger for God, and know you're not living the kind of life that you could be, you will be blessed by this book! It's inspirational and encouraging, filled with scripture, and a message of hope! Joyce's style is down to earth, clear, and applicable to today! She uses examples of women from all walks of life that choose to live courageously, and follow Jesus. I plan to re-read this book again (later this year) and gain even more insight, as well as other Joyce Meyer books! She's really terrific!

Outstanding

A good material piece for every women who wants to achieve great confidence in herself. This book will inspire you to take the next step in beliving in yourself. Joyce Meyer basically captured the true meaning of fear, and simply challenges us move on and do it with fear because we will never know what the outcome will be if you don't move forward to face the fear. Remarkable reading. Great holiday gift for that special female that you know could be ready for the next phase in her life, but have fear.

A Lesson Well Learned

This is one of the best books I've read in a long time. Joyce Meyers is one of my favorite authors now. No matter what situation you find yourself in, her books and this one in particular, will teach you a lesson to overcome and face, with faith, whatever is currently in your life. The Confident Woman made me think and gave me renewed strength to actually become a confident woman.

Great Self-Help/Success Book for Christian Women

The Confident Woman is a great book for Christian women who feel a calling to do more in their lives (regardless of their age). Joyce leads you through claiming your confidence, becoming bold without being overbearing, and overcoming fear in order to succeed in life. In the beginning of the book she covers Adam vs. Eve issues and weaves the message that men and women are and should be partners not enemies. Keep your bible with you for this book as you may want to cross reference, although most biblical passages are included in The Confident Woman, some are only mentioned to be referenced.
