She Reigns: Conquering Your Triggers, Fears, and Worries with God’s Truth

Tarah-Lynn Saint-Elien. Revell, $16.99 trade paper (208p) ISBN 978-0-800-73697-2

Cosmopolitan fashion editor and former pageant queen Saint-Elien (Claim Your Crown) lays out in this upbeat offering ways for women to find confidence through faith. Just as biblical queens Esther and Michal overcame fear to achieve great feats, Saint-Elien writes, readers can use God’s boundless love to move past self-imposed limitations and adopt a “kingdom mindset” to “redefine who [they] are through the eyes of the Father” and reap his blessings. To help readers build stronger relationships with God, the author offers reflection questions (“What doubts do you need to bring to God today?”) and suggests, among other things, writing to God. As well, she warns against heeding Satan’s calls to “surrender to [your fears] in the battlefield of your mind.” Throughout, she weaves in her own personal challenges with belief, and though the messaging becomes repetitive, readers will appreciate the author’s passion and earnest entreaties to develop a personal relationship with God. Believers will welcome this heartening entry. (Apr.)
