Item description for Embrace Grace: Welcome to the Forgiven Life by Liz Curtis Higgs...
Overview
The best-selling author of Bad Girls of the Bible encourages women to let go of past mistakes and disappointments, teaching them how to accept the gift of divine forgiveness and embrace the freedom that God's grace offers.
Publishers Description
The forgiven life. The grace-filled life.
It begins with an embrace.
Wherever you are spiritually, whatever you have been through emotionally, you are already enfolded in the arms of One who believes in you, supports you, treasures you.
He is waiting for you to embrace him in return. To accept the gift he's offering you. To listen for the whispered words you've longed a lifetime to hear:
You are loved. All is forgiven.

–Rebecca Pippert, best-selling author of Out of the Saltshaker & Into the World
“For every woman who has ever felt as if she were standing on the outside looking in, welcome home! In Embrace Grace, Liz Curtis Higgs gently addresses the lies that keep us from everything our hearts so desperately need: love, forgiveness, and most of all, acceptance. Don't stand out there shivering in the cold! Christ stands with open arms waiting to love you back to life.”
– Joanna Weaver, best-selling author of Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World
“Embrace Grace isn't for perfect, churchy women who have never made a mistake. It's for women who've blown it and are willing to investigate a better way to live. Liz Curtis Higgs is vulnerable, authentic, honest, and compassionate. Embrace Grace provides answers, truth, and a map that will take you from shame and guilt to a hope-filled future.”
–Carol Kent, author of When I Lay My Isaac Down
“Leave it to Liz Curtis Higgs–a master writer, storyteller and Bible teacher–to give us a book with a heavy hitting message wrapped in a cloak of warmth that melts even the coldest heart. Liz tells the story of grace, forgiveness, and restoration that every one of us–the wounded, the hurting, the seeking–needs to hear. This book must be read slowly and on bended knee, for each page is steeped with truth that will cause you to more passionately embrace the Father, embrace forgiveness, and Embrace Grace.”
– Priscilla Shirer, author of He Speaks to Me
“Like the fingers of an expert masseuse, Liz kneads away the knots of guilt, fear, and regret we all have. Embrace Grace speaks life-changing truth to our hurting, anxious souls in a uniquely winsome way.”

From Publishers Weekly
Higgs, bestselling author of Bad Girls of the Bible, offers a sweet but
substantial gift book about accepting God's grace and leaving the past behind.
Higgs's personal history includes "a lost decade of sex, drugs, and rock 'n
'roll," and though she doesn't focus on her past, she writes believably as
someone who struggled with accepting grace herself. Each chapter contains
multiple Scripture verses strung together with comments she's received from
readers (such as, "I don't feel I am worthy of having God forgive me of my
sins and weaknesses. I feel like a failure.") and reflections from her own
life. She walks through several stages of receiving grace-including doubting
that grace could be possible, confronting sin, forgiving yourself and
repenting. Readers will feel at ease with Higgs's down-home style that's never
preachy. Higgs aims to provide "a field guide, tracing a well-worn footpath
from doubt to belief, pointing us away from shame and toward hope." She
succeeds, and readers who are looking for more insight from this former Bad
Girl will be very thankful. (Sept. 19) Copyright 2006 Reed Business

Reviews - What do customers think about Embrace Grace: Welcome to the Forgiven Life?
 | The Little Book That Could Feb 1, 2007 |
| Embrace Grace is a little book with a powerful message. It's appropriate for anyone who's struggled with feeling worthy of grace and mercy, compassion and encouragement. Liz Curtis Higgs delivers a message of hope and help for the hurting. She shares her own and others' experiences on the path to not just accepting God's grace, but embracing it. | | | | Embrace Grace Jan 9, 2007 |
| This books was very spirit led. I read it with my bible study group; however, on an individual basis it would be very worthwhile also! It is a quick read, with individual chapters divided easily for devotional type reading. I highly recommend this book! Embrace His Grace & Forgiveness!! | | |  | Wasn't What I Expected, But Good Jan 8, 2007 |
| This was not what I expected, however, it was good reading, but sometimes a little confusing. I wasn't expecting the writer to be as laid back as she was, and thought there would be more suggestions on how to's, but it was more of experiences that were shared. | | | | Big Hug from God! Nov 12, 2006 |
| I heartily recommend "Embrace Grace" to every woman regardless of her situation. If you've ever struggled with shame, guilt, depression, or feeling unloved by God, this book is for you! For those who feel like they don't belong, who lack faith, who have a past they are ashamed of . . . or for those who just need to feel loved and accepted, this book will feel like a big hug from God as He embraces you in arms of grace and forgiveness. Order several copies . . . one for yourself to read again and again, and some to give to your friends. Our ministry is about hope . . . and that is what you will find in this book. We're very excited to see what God will do in your heart as you soak in His love through the words of Liz Curtis Higgs. | | | | Profoundly encouraging book... Oct 28, 2006 |
| Embrace Grace is one of the most encouraging and insightful non-fiction books I've read that addresses the forgiven life that can only be found in Christ. Liz discusses a multitude of topics based on e-mails she has received from women who were hurting and needed assurance that their Heavenly Father loves them and has forgiven them. I received comfort within the pages of Embrace Grace that I, too, am not exempt from God's ever-reaching power and all-encompassing grace. For me the most powerful chapter was "Embrace Sin." What? You ask. Embrace sin? Here's the subtitle. "How could he love me after all I've done?" This chapter includes both before and after salvation. It still gives me goosebumps and I get a little choked up when I think about it. Very powerful. A must read.
