About this audiobook
Get ready to leave defeat and disbelief in your dust, and step boldly into the life God has purposed for you from the beginning.
It's tough when your gifts and passions are stuck in holding patterns of insecurity, shame, and comparison. But the truth is, every experience of your life has prepared you to live out your God-given purpose in this exact moment. The world is hurting and our lives are waiting, we don't have time stay stuck--we've got to make a move.
You Are the Girl for the Job is not an empty catchphrase. It's the straight-up truth God has proclaimed over your life from the beginning. It's not a statement about your capacity, but rather about His--and that's why we can dare to believe it's true.
With powerful insights and heart-pumping hope, bestselling author Jess Connolly is here to coach you through six steps toward empowered purpose:
- #1 Call It Quit (You'll see, it's the best place to start)
- #2 Find Your People
- #3 Use What You've Got
- #4 Face Your Fear
- #5 Catch the Vision
- And finally, #6 Make Your Move
You don't have to hide, hold back, or wait for permission when God calls you forward. Let this book--as well as the study guide and video study (sold separately)--be your jumpstart into confident, purposed living.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Such a wonderful book, not only because it inspires women to believe in themselves but because it affirms the love God has for us. It also pushed me to ask the question: what is my mission? Something I dread because I’m afraid I’m not equipped to do. Thank you Jess for opening my eyes to a more understanding view of God which I always had but wasn’t completely sure. He loves us no matter what and wouldn’t asks us to do something we couldn’t do.
