This book is changing thousands of lives, including mine!!Oct 06, 2011
By Melissa Taylor
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3IT008FG50QZ0 This is the book trailer for A Confident Heart. I wanted to post it as part of my review because what Renee Swope says in it truly reflects her heart as a woman and who she is as an author. It also clearly describes the premise of the book and what you will get from it when you read it. When I first read A Confident Heart, it was like I'd come home to all I needed to know or be reminded of. I wanted to tell as many people about it as I could!! So, I decided to offer an online Bible study through Proverbs 31 Ministries. As a result, over 8,000 women from around the world are now reading, praying and growing together through Renee's message. We are learning how to overcome self-doubts and live with a confident heart.
The stories of life-change of how this message is impacting these 8000 women is incredible! After reading the first chapter, one woman shared that for the first time, she felt enough confidence to call her father, who she hadn't talked to in 27 years, and forgive him!! This week we're on chapter 3 and women are saying they already feel hope - like never before - that they are not alone in their struggles and that they can change, that they really live with "God-fidence" as Renee calls is, in the security of God's promises.
I highly recommend this book to every person! We all need to know that we don't have to have it all together to be used by God, and we don't have to hide our struggle with self-doubt, or stay stuck in a place of uncertainty, or get buried in the pain and disappointments of life. A Confident Heart offers real life stories, struggles and hope through Biblical truths and testimonies that show us: God is with us, offering His presence, power and assurance live with confident hope. We were made for more than doubt and defeat - we were created to live with a confident heart in Christ!

It was like God was right there with me... molding my heart!Jul 21, 2011
By Catherine Carroll
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R26LH2XMLG93I8 I feel like someone finally jumped in my head, and my heart and painted over my insecurities with God's word. "A Confident Heart" allowed God to peel the onion of my insecurity one layer at a time, addressing things I never even dreamed were impacting my confidence, like fear and worry. This is one of the books that I will pick up year after year to remind me of the power I have even in my most broken and hollow moments. ~Catherine C

like words from a friendJul 20, 2011
By emily freeman
Renee Swope knows what she's talking about. In A Confident Heart, Renee shares the truth about living free from doubt with beauty, vulnerability, and grace. Reading this book, I don't feel like someone is preaching to me. Instead, it's like Renee and I are sitting together in her cozy living room and I'm nodding my head with every word she says.

Finds You Where You Are, But Doesn't Leave You ThereSep 07, 2011
By keptfree
Are you tired of living with your fear-filled thinking, self-doubts, and your own negative-feedback? Then I encourage you to read A Confident Heart: How to Stop Doubting Yourself and Live in the Security of God's Promises by Renee Swope. Through ample examples of her experiences and struggles in these areas, she leads us to see ourselves in Christ instead of in failure.
Each chapter portrays a valuable principle along with examples of Renee's struggles. The chapters end with Scripture-based prayer leading us to recovery and health. Included in each chapter, is a list of pointed questions that make us search our deepest thoughts and feelings on the covered topic.
Not living in confidence, causes us to pretend we are something we are not, because we think that is what others expect of us. I was struck by Renee's insight on this:
"Pretending leads to hiding and isolation. What we need is someone who will pursue us and accept us even though we're flawed. Yet most of us doubt anyone would ever stick with us if we let them get too close. So we put up walls and hide our struggles, even from God, hoping, we'll convince Him and everyone else that we're fine. Eventually, though, we find ourselves in the shadows of doubt, convinced that we aren't worth knowing or pursuing. Slowly we begin to believe we have to be perfect to be loved and accepted." p. 32
Renee points out this in regards to the conversation between Jesus and the woman at the well, "He helped her... see that each broken relationship (with past husbands) had convinced her she was not worth staying for."
How many of us have broken relationships with family and old friends? Those broken relationships often set us up for the next failed relationship which only continues to reinforce our lack of self-worth.
The solution? Renee says, "We were made for love that isn't measured by our last accomplishment but marked by God's measureless grace." (p. 62)
She recognizes that, "When you have been wounded, the risk of getting hurt again seems more costly, and perhaps even more likely, doesn't it?" p. 72
Many of us will have to remind ourselves of Renee`s perspective on family when we become entangled in a web of self-doubts that we have born for years. "We'll also need to realize our family of origin does not define our identity.....Whether we had a great family or not, our hearts will only find lasting confidence when we find our identity as children of God." (p. 90)

I received a copy of A Confident Heart from Revell/Baker Publishing.

I Highly Recommend This BookOct 10, 2011
By Kay
"Kay"
An outstanding book for anyone, especially those with self-esteem and self-worth "issues". I could identify with Renee from the first chapter. Definitely a book I will read over again. The study questions are probing and help you evaluate your own life and experiences. Renee helps the reader to see herself through God's lens, not the warped lens we are so accustomed to using (our own). Reading the book is good, putting it into practice and taking a hard look at your own life is better. I definitely recommend this book!
