Description

In You Have it in You, Sheryl Brady explores the lives of the Bible’s most talented, faithful, and amazing people and reveals that they didn’t know that they had it in them either—not until God revealed the truth about their identity and abilities to them, often in the midst of perilous trials and challenging situations.

Like these heroes of Christianity, all of us have untapped talents, unclaimed abilities, and unmerited gifts waiting to be discovered inside us. Brady believes God wants us to peel away the layers that we often tried to hide behind, dissolve the excuses that we use as camouflage, and reveal the beauty of our true selves. By sharing her own journey as well as examples from history and current culture, Brady challenges us to reconsider the way we see ourselves and to re-frame our own understanding of how we got there.

In You Have it in You Brady asks: Do you know what you’re made of? More importantly, do you want to discover the many strengths dormant inside you just waiting to be discovered? It is Brady’s hope that you will be inspired to reconsider the challenges you currently face as opportunities for self-discovery and faith-enrichment. She believes that when you finish this book you will have a new perspective on all that God has brought you through, a greater awareness of all that you’ve accomplished and endured.
