About Freedom To Flourish: The Rest God Offers In The

Product Description Are you tired? Are you  weary? So many Christian women are exhausted because we've come to believe that God's purpose for us is rooted in what we do--which means we're constantly striving to have somehow done enough. But there is hope! Elizabeth takes us back to the gracious plan God laid out for us in Genesis: he created us to bear his image, he is inviting us to live out that purpose, and through Christ he frees us to flourish as those who are unconditionally loved. Review "A breath of fresh air for any woman who feels exhausted from the try-harder-do-more pressures of life. . . . Writing with biblical wisdom and insight, Garn warmly invites women to rest in God as they faithfully fulfill their calling." -- Melissa Kruger, Director of Women's Initiatives, The Gospel Coalition "Garn calls us to remember that the joy and fulfillment we seek cannot be uncoupled from our calling as God's image-bearers. Offering readers a better story than traditionalist gender tropes or the try-harder-do-better mantras of secularism, she invites us into true freedom the freedom of becoming our truest selves through Christ." -- Hannah Anderson, Author, Made for More: An Invitation to Live in God's Image "Elizabeth Garn provides a compassionate and winsome voice for those struggling with their calling as Christian women. . . . Best of all, she reminds readers repeatedly that their worth in God's sight comes not from their own efforts but as a gift from him."-- David VanDrunen, Robert B. Strimple Professor of Systematic Theology and Christian Ethics, Westminster Seminary California "Elizabeth Garn offers an insightful and hope-giving understanding of God's design for human flourishing, the effects of sin, and the restoration offered in the gospel." -- Eric Schumacher, Coauthor, Worthy: Celebrating the Value of Women "Elizabeth has given us both a commentary and a devotional on Genesis 1-3. Though this may be familiar territory for some, readers will be truly inspired as she takes us deeper into these chapters than most of us have gone before. I hope many groups will study this together and be inspired in community to live out their gifts in the image of God." -- Wendy Alsup, Author, Companions in Suffering: Comfort for Times of Loss and Loneliness "It's not every day that you read a book and sense God causing your heart to feel simultaneously rested and stirred toward loving action. This is the twofold impact of Freedom to Flourish: Elizabeth Garn has taken a careful look at Genesis 1-3 and in these pages shares the fruit of long hours spent gazing at Christ and what it means for us to be image bearers of God through him. If you're tired, bent down under shame, or just plain confused about what it means to be a faithful Christian woman, read this book and allow God to draw you closer to himself, then compel you outward . . . to flourish and rest through life as a loved image bearer." -- Ellen Mary Dykas, Women's Ministry Director, Harvest USA "Who am I? This is one of life's most important questions. For many women, including myself, the answers we've heard have only left us confused, unanchored, and empty. In Freedom to Flourish, Elizabeth Garn takes us through Genesis 1-3 and shows us the glorious purpose for which we were created. Sisters, read this book with joy as you receive the gift of purpose, crafted for you by the Maker himself." -- Christina Fox, Counselor; Writer; Retreat Speaker; Author, A Holy Fear: Trading Lesser Fears for the Fear of the Lord "Elizabeth Garn's wise, careful exposition of Genesis 1-3 leads us to see the story of creation with new eyes. Her lively, well-organized prose provides fresh insights about what it means to be an image bearer; how sin destroys but God binds up and restores; and how God calls us to join him in his work of redemption and community. Freedom to Flourish is infused with grace and the soul-rest that our creative, redeeming, restoring God provides." -- Maria G
