I Dare You: Embrace Life with Passion is another inspirational and uplifting offering from Joyce Meyer, the famed Christian motivational speaker and Bible teacher. In this book, Meyer offers Christ-centered advice on how to embrace the passion in your life - and how to do so in a purpose-driven and faithful manner.
With keen insights and lively examples, Meyer examines the forces that motive use, and how we can harness these forces to not only help us figure out what our purpose in life is - but also how to find the passion to accomplish it! In this respect, Meyer is not just speaking about our higher calling, but also about the more mundane aspects of life from balancing your checkbook to strengthening your family life. She also shows how by channeling these forces into purposeful actions, we are fortifying not only our mind and body, but our spirit as well.
This audio edition of I Dare You is read by Sandra McCollom, who brings the same passion and strength to the reading that Meyer would have brought herself had she read the book. Perhaps this is because McCollom is Meyer's youngest daughter, so she has been well-schooled, gaining an in-depth understanding of her mother's teaching and has had the opportunity to listen and watch her teach on numerous occasions.
You cannot listen to this book without being uplifted - nor without thinking differently about how you feel about passion - and what you are passionate about! If you don't like the life you are currently leading - never fear! Meyer shows you how to take charge of your life and change it for the better. Most important, she shows you, in no uncertain terms, how to find the passion in your life, and how to use it purposefully!
I Dare You is a required listening for anyone needing an inspirational pick-me up, or anyone who has befitted from any of Meyer's books, teachings, or lectures, as well as for anyone looking for guidance on how to live a more Christ-centered life.
