To know ones purpose is a huge part of a woman’s life. We are always wondering why we are here and what we are meant to do. Susie Larson tries to address that issue in her new book Your Beautiful Purpose: Discovering and Enjoying What God Can Do Through You but, falls a little short.Larson starts the book of strong in the beginning describing the type of women she has written this book for and that immediately captured my attention since I could relate to more that one of those women. The sad part is, that’s about all my attention span lasted.
This book is redundant in that I have heard all this before. Maybe not directed towards women but, this is a book filled with the “same old thing.” Believing that God has a true purpose for us, waiting for it to happen on His time, and having faith enough to believe in God’s promises while following the walk He has laid our for us.
Now, she does have study questions at the end of each chapter and she explains that you can use this book for a small group bible study along with the study videos that she has made. This might possibly be better for a small group study where you can get other’s opinions and their observation which may expand on everything that is said in the book. As for a book to read on your own, I wouldn't recommend it. It was hard to read and very lack-luster to say that least.
*I was given a complimentary copy of this book from the Bethany House for the purpose of this review.*
