Awaken. The lioness rises from her slumber, a magnificent image of strength, passion, and beauty. Her mere presence commands the landscape, protects her young, and empowers the lion. In groups, lionesses become a creative and strategic force to be reckoned with, acting as one to change the world around them. You too are a lioness. In Lioness Arising, author and speaker Lisa Bevere offers the life and image of the lioness as a fierce and tender model for women. Revealing the surprising characteristics of this amazing creature, Lisa challenges women to discover fresh passion, prowess, and purpose. Learn what it means to be a stunning representation of strength, fiercely protect the young, lend your voice to the silenced, live in the light and hunt in the dark, and raise a collective roar that changes everything.
Lisa Bevere is a wonderfully, God-inspired speaker, whom I'm very happy to have heard "live" on several occasions.
Unfortunately her inspiration doesn't translate all that well to pen and paper, so while I liked "Lioness Arising" well enough, I wasn't as touched by it as I had hoped to be. Originally I thought her message just didn't work as well in the written word, so I got hold of an audio version of her book, read by Lisa Bevere herself, but it still didn't have the passion or the energy as her speaking has when you experience her on stage.
Even so, Lisa made a lot of good points in her book, so at the end of the day, I still liked it well enough to give it 3 stars.
