Living as a Confident Daughter of God: A Faith-Sharing Guide for Catholic Women

Many books are available to help women grow in self-confidence, but this sixteen-session faith-sharing guide is designed to help women grow in "God-confidence." The first eight sessions focus on growing in confidence of Gods' promises - among them his promises of unconditional love, grace, presence, and eternal life. The second eight sessions help women to embrace their humanity, their vocation, and their femininity and respond to God's call to grow in holiness and to share the good news. Like Living as a Beloved Daughter of God, a companion guide, the aim of this book is to help women grow closer to God and to one another. Each session features: A short opening story about a woman challenged to exercise her faith; A Scripture passage to support the theme of the session; Excerpts from the Catechism and other church documents; Questions for personal reflection and group discussion. About the author: Patricia Mitchell has served as editorial director of The Word Among Us Press since 1999. With Deacon Bill Bawden, she co-authored the faith-sharing guide, Living As A Beloved Daughter of God. She has also written and edited several books on the saints. Patty and her husband, John, have four children and live in Virginia.
