Wild and Free by Jess Connolly & Hayley Morgan
Rating: 5/5
Wild and Free is an anthem and an invitation in equal parts to find freedom from the cultural captivity that holds us back, and freedom to step into the wild and holy call of God in our lives. With fresh biblical insight tracing all the way back to Eve and a treasury of practical application, Jess and Hayley reveal how women today can walk in the true liberty we already have in Jesus. Because you don’t have to be everything to everyone. You don’t have to try so hard to button it up and hold it together. And you certainly don’t have to quiet the voice that God gave you when he created you to sing. Wild and Free will help you shake off the lies of insecurity in your life, and step forward to maximize your God-given influence for his glory and the world’s good.
I love, love, love this book. I’ve followed both these gals through their blogs and social media for ages, and when I heard they were coming out with a book – together – I knew I had to get my hands on a copy. The ladies speak so much truth in each chapter as they tag-team write from different perspectives.
You know those rare books you read every “once in a blue moon” that you completely resonate with? As I read Wild and Free, I felt like both Jess & Hayley knew exactly how I felt, and exactly the thoughts I had been thinking about myself. Reading this wonderful book was like sitting across from a good friend in a coffee shop and gleaning wisdom from them. I read this book in four different sittings, and I’m glad I took the time to dwell on what I had read & learned before continuing on.
Bottom Line: If you haven’t picked up a copy of Wild and Free yet, grab your purse and run to the nearest bookstore. You won’t regret it.
Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the BookLook Bloggers book review program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
