FROM A READER: Your book does something I think is so important (and I don't think I've seen any books do this), which is to allow the person some options, so that the Holy Spirit guides their study and choosing what changes they should make. I think this is very well done in your book. (Joyce)
About Character Makeover
Embark on a forty-day journey with a personal life coach to develop Christlike character. A continuation of Katie Brazelton’s bestselling Pathway to Purpose for Women, this book was created for women of all ages who want a character-rejuvenating experience that will inspire them to live out God’s unique purpose for their life.
Description:
Get the kind of makeover that will transform your life!
Bestselling author and life coach Katie Brazelton takes you on a deeply personal forty-day journey of developing your character. Discover how to close the gap between understanding God’s purpose for your life and carrying it out as you put an end to well-worn patterns of defeat, woundedness, insecurity, unworthiness, and self-centeredness.
Teaming up with coauthor Shelley Leith, who is a highly sought-after speaker on strengthening marriages and family, Brazelton focuses on eight character traits essential to living a purpose-filled life: humility, confidence, courage, self-control, patience, contentment, generosity, and perseverance.
Step-by-step you’ll experience a complete character makeover—and become the best “you” God intended you to be. Ideal for small groups, women’s church ministry, and one-on-one study.
What Readers are saying...
Joyce: I must say, so far I just love this book. I lead women's Bible studies, and a few of the goals I have for each study is that it has a strong Biblical foundation, understandable, challenging and most important, practical. I have noticed that most studies are very weak on being practical, but your book gets extra praise. It does something I think is so important (and I don't think I've seen any books do this), which is to allow the person some options, so that the Holy Spirit guides their study and choosing what changes they should make. This personalization aspect is very powerful and helpful, because it allows individuals to custom-tailor a growth plan that works for them. I think this is very well done in your book. It makes me really look forward to when the small group curriculum comes out to do this study with my ladies.
Michelle: I feel like I've had a lot of anger since my 16-year-old nephew passed away last year and thought it was time to do something about it. So I felt like your book was yelling at me, "Pick me! Pick me!"
Cathie: I heard of the book while listening to Katie as a guest on a radio show. I liked what I heard when she responded to the callers and the warmth and sincerity. I am one of those who thought the term "life coach" was for non-Christians who could not think on their own! I ordered the book, thinking I was getting it for my twin sister. However, as soon as I got it and opened it up, I knew it was what I needed! I can't tell you how many times I have sent the website link to my friends. My daughter is going to do the study in her women's accountability group ... she absolutely loves it! And yes, I am going to order it for my twin sister as well.
Amanda: I have a friend who has been living a crazy, not-so-God-honoring life. She found your book at our local Christian booksore and asked me to do it with her as an accountability partner. Turns out, I could use character makeover too! We really enjoyed Day Two, listening to the chapter on the internet.
Robin: I am in the middle of Beth Moore's "Breaking Free" study with a group of women, and your book seemed like a perfect and practical companion to that study. It is not easy to admit that we need work, and the coaching aspect makes it a whole lot easier.
