Life Overs - Gracie Malone
Gracie Malone explores twelve paradoxical teachings of Jesus using a one-a-week format that can be used as a group or personal study.
Many of Jesus’ teachings often seemed upside-down or backwards, such as discovering strength in weakness, finding joy in trials, and maturing into childhood. Gracie takes these teachings and nine others and swishes them around, wrings them out, and hangs them up to thoroughly reveal how they can become very personally applicable to women today. She uses strong scriptural references and many real-life stories to illustrate the messages each passage holds.
Not only does each chapter provide deep and profound ways of looking at our circumstances in a new way–probably one we’ve not thought of before–but the chapters also end with study questions to more thoroughly search and support each “upside-down teaching.” Whether you choose to read this in a weekly group study or a personal one, you will find this relevant, of ten humorous take on these difficult teachings enlightening and uplifting.
