Description

Are you in a midlife season of unwanted change that has shifted your life in unexpected ways? Maybe this season has you questioning your identity, your purpose, or whether God’s promises for your life still stand. Brave Change invites women in midlife to embrace life’s shifts with courage rooted in trust in God.

Unexpected change can cause your life to feel upended into a chapter you never wanted to write—whether it’s divorce, death, family troubles, broken relationships, hope deferred, a health or financial crisis, the unraveling of a dream, or a transition you never saw coming. In this book, Krista Pettiford draws from Naomi’s story in the book of Ruth and her own personal journey to offer biblical wisdom, hope, and practical guidance for navigating unexpected seasons.

Advance Praise

"Brave Change is a deeply honest, hope-filled invitation for women navigating life-altering transitions to rediscover God's faithfulness in every season. Through biblical wisdom, personal vulnerability, and practical encouragement, Krista Pettiford gently walks readers through the grief, uncertainty, identity shifts, and unexpected changes that often accompany midlife, divorce, disappointment, loss, and new beginnings. What I appreciate most about this book is that it does not offer shallow encouragement or quick fixes. Instead, Krista reminds women that God is present in every chapter of their story, even the painful and uncertain ones. With compassion and spiritual insight, she helps women process change, renew their hope, reclaim their identity, and move forward with faith, courage, and grace. Women who feel stuck between what was and what could be will find comfort, clarity, and practical direction within these pages. Brave Change is a timely reminder that unexpected endings do not cancel God's goodness, purpose, or plans for our lives."
