A Different Kind of Wild: Is Your Faith Too Tame?

by Debbie Alsdorf

Overview

Debbie Alsdorf wants women to get a little wild--a new and different wild that will enrich their sense of purpose, establish their faith, and lift their sagging spirits when life gets hard. In A Different Kind of Wild she encourages women to take back their lives and begin living how God intended--lives that are bigger and grander than the norm.
With passion and contagious enthusiasm, Alsdorf helps women break free of perfectionistic tendencies to live in untamed courageous obedience to God's leading. The book's twelve chapters and discussion questions make it perfect for small group study or for personal spiritual growth and direction.
