I Am.... A 60 Day Journey to Knowing Who You Are...


That is the title of the book.... "I Am: A 60 Day Journey to Knowing Who You Are because of Who He is". You can guess the He part. Yes, it's God. Whether you believe in God or not, self help books are always something that could help you discover more of who you are. Even if you only believe in meditation. The nice thing about this book is that it is not overly preachy about the lack of believe but rather experience and coordination between faith and life.

I felt reading this, that this was more Michele's journey that we were listening to and reading. While it had good insights and was a fast read, it was not what I was expecting. I was expecting more guidance and stepping stones based on the title of the book.

In her journey, you will be able to also feel that you are identifying with a woman, a mother, a wife, and human being. Her struggles are some of the same that we have experienced and you will share in some of them. Others, you may not understand why it was something she had to go through, or why she went back home from college permanently because someone made fun of her weight, but that is because it is her struggle and her journey.

There is the wish that this book would have been more guided focus or to include it but overall, it was a fast easy read with a few pages for each day. I think some people will get a lot of immense comfort in this book while others won't understand it all.

Book Description

"From the moment a woman wakes until she falls, exhausted, on her pillow, one question plagues her at every turn: Am I enough? The pressure to do more, be more has never been more intense. Online marketing. Self-help books. Movies, magazines and gym memberships. Even church attendance and social media streams have become a means of comparing ourselves to impossible standards. Am I pretty enough? Hip enough? Spiritual enough? We fear the answer is “No.”
When a brutal bout with cancer changed how she looked, talked, and lived, Michele Cushatt embarked on a soul-deep journey to rediscover herself. The typical self-esteem strategies and positivity plans weren’t enough. Instead, she needed a new foundation, one that wouldn’t prove flimsy when faced with the onslaught of day-to-day life.
With raw personal stories, rock-solid biblical teaching, and radical truths on which to rebuild your life, I Am will help you: • End the barrage of negative self-talk with an empowering new narrative. • Refuse to ride the rollercoaster of others’ opinions and start believing what God’s says about you. • Stop agonizing over past regrets and failures and make peace with God’s sovereign plan for your life.  • Leave insecurity behind as you exchange temporary fixes for an identity established on God’s unchanging affection.
I Am reminds us that our value isn’t found in our talents, achievements, relationships, or appearance. It is instead found in a God who chose us, sent us, and promised to be with us—forever."

I would give this book ☀☀☀☀ out of 5.
