I was drawn to this book by the title. It is classic Beth Moore style, which I enjoy her humor and stories. The first bit is slow but it's necessary to build the foundation of where she takes you. Her in depth and challenging push to be bold and marked with originality truly inspires. You gain a greater comprehension of what you could imagine is Audacious. So worth reading.

Beth Moore has written several powerful books, but this is my first one. When the opportunity came available to review this book I jumped at the chance. Up until this year I had not read many nonfiction books about faith, but I must admit this is one I truly enjoyed, but I did not agree with everything she presented.

The book is written in a very easy to read style, almost like sitting and having a conversation. The first few pages were hard to get through, but necessary. She shares stories that will keep the reader not only entertained, but drawn into her insights. She has set the book up strategically that each chapter pulls the reader deeper in. The first chapter gives background for writing of the book and chapter four actually examines the word "audacious". Chapter 7 is where she takes a look at the personal journey an individual takes when following Christ. This chapter touched me deeply. She gives powerful quotes and great insight into walking in a closer relationship with Christ.

This may have been the first book from Beth Moore that I have read, but it will not be the last. I do recommend this book to any woman who want to enrich their lives and walk closer with Christ.

**I received this book from BH Lifeway free for a honest review without bias or outside influence. I was not required to write a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Beautiful, helpful, and great read to pass along to your women friends, acquaintances, or strangers who could use an understanding of God's great big awesome LOVE for them.

When I started the book I became aware that Beth Moore intended it for women. The brochure from ChristianBook did not make that clear so I kind of felt like I was trying to eavesdrop on a meeting of the Women's Auxiliary. But once I got into it I found it really would be as good for men as for women.

Her point, thoroughly grounded in the Scriptures and made with great humor and style, is that walking the path of Jesus requires audacity. This book is Audacious.

Beth Moore is a gifted author who continues to serve the Lord with her ability to express herself passionately. She studies and goes deeply in her exploration of scripture. This book draws the reader closer to the Lord and helps you renew your faith. She has outdone herself with Audacious. I hope this becomes a Women's Study so that I can lead it for our Women's Ministry.
