Nothing to Prove: Why We Can Stop Trying So Hard - Paperback

by Jennie Allen (Author)

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The visionary author of Get Out of Your Head challenges Christian women to discover what it means to do life with God rather than always striving to impress him in this perspective-shifting work.

"These pages are what your soul is begging for. Jennie Allen reminds us that when we drive ourselves mad chasing perfection, we miss the beautiful grace God designed us to live in."--Ann Voskamp, New York Times bestselling author of The Greatest Gift

Are you trying your best to measure up--yet still feel as if you're losing ground?

You are not alone.

Many of us are weary, weighted down with the daily struggle of keeping up and the fear that no matter how hard we try, we are still not enough. In Nothing to Prove, Jennie invites us into a different experience, one in which our souls overflow with contentment and joy and calls us to...

- Find freedom from self-induced pressure by admitting we're not enough--but Jesus is.
- Admit our greatest needs and watch them be filled by the only One who can meet them.
- Make it our goal to know and love Jesus, then watch what He does in and through us.

Leave behind a life of striving and settle into the refreshing truth of the more-than-enough life Jesus offers. When you do, you'll experience the joyous freedom that comes to those who are determined to discover what God can do through a soul completely living for Him.
