Graceful Influence, by Lori Roeleveld

Today, Roberta talks to Lori Roeleveld about her new book Graceful Influence: Making a Lasting Impact through Lessons from Women of the Bible, available from Our Daily Bread publishers. Ever wonder if you're making a difference in your world?  There's a lot on your plate. Everyday tasks pile up and your weeks are packed. Too often activities take precedence over people. It's easy to feel like you're not making a real impact on your loved ones, workplace, or community.  But the stories of biblical women answer resoundingly, Yes, you do make a difference!    Lori Stanley Roeleveld offers you the chance to realize the power of your influence. In examining the lives of pairs of women from the Bible, you will discover how their contrasting choices allowed them to influence future generations. And whether their decisions were wise or unwise, God was able to use their stories to make Himself known. The relevance of their struggles will shed light on the challenges modern women face in making similar choices.   Whether you are a newcomer or a longtime reader of Scripture, reading as an individual or with a small group, you will be both encouraged and challenged by Lori's biblical insight and compassionate wisdom. In 28 short chapters, unpack the Bible's age-old stories with a fresh, authentic voice that will resonate with your heart. Brought to you by Roberta Foster, KNEO Radio and the Sky High Podcast Network.
