Out Of Control And Loving It: Giving God Complete Control of Your Life

Candid and eye opening
I saw so much if myself in this book and it was so liberating to be told that I don't have to take care of everything. I appreciated Lisa being so candid because many of her struggles are struggles that I have. I have always viewed myself as a horrible Christian because I'm not perfect. This book has directed me in a completely different way of thinking. What really hit me was questioning myself how many times I have over extended myself to take care of things that were only temporary and not eternal. A must read for any woman struggling with trying to be perfect.

Seriously a great book to be kept on the nightstand for quick access.
I'm on the last chapter of this book. I stayed up late almost every night reading it. She gives great scripture references, cool stories about herself, and breaks it all down as to how to apply it all in your daily life. Although it was written a while back, it arrived right on time as God's tool to help me with identifying where my spiritual attacks are coming from and how easy it is to get rid of it. I also have her book 'Fight Like a Girl'. Through all her books, she knows how to strengthen the essence of how women are meant to be in the Eyes of God. We're humble, but not weak. Strong in living in God's Word, but not loudmouth gossipers with haughty eyes and showing no mercy to others. Fully embracing our role as a woman without overpressuring and fooling ourselves by stealing the roles that God gave to His sons.

Eye Opening!! Freeing
I adored reading this book in my quiet time, as a stay at home mother and baby sitter. Lisa did such a good job writing in a way that kept my attention, and yet I could walk away after 1 page and give my attention to my kiddos and really be able to meditate on what God had revealed to her.

Poorly written, author misses living a healthy journey
Book suggests forget about past traumas, and as a Social Worker, we know processing is needed in order to get through, to live a full life!

Oh my God, How this book has helped me
Lisa Bevere is a true Godsend. How marvelous it is to relinquish control over aspects of our lives that we were never meant to handle in the first place. And how maturing is it to realize what we do have control over..our responses...and how that allows us to make the right choices in life. God Bless this woman and her ministry. Trust me, this is not just a book for the Women of God. Everyone should read this!

Great for independent or group study
I would definitely recommend this book. I bought it as one of a few that I am considering using for a women's small group, book study at church. After the first chapter I was concerned the book would be too "light", but by the third, I realized there are many poignant points the author makes, sometimes ever so subtly, that they sink into your subconscious and you can come up with the idea on your own but inspired by what you are reading.God is using this book to show me areas of my life that I have been holding onto and he is shaking me loose. What I appreciate about this book that is different than some of the others, is that instead of delving into the past, the author challenges you to accept your past and move on into the future. As someone who has spent significant time on the past, I was relieved to move on from it.

This book had been recommend by a lady in our church who is on a recovery after being healed from depression. I only started to read the first few chapters, but am already touched. This book will help to change your view on your relationship with God and help you understand yourself better. Am looking forward to the next chapters and to be 'out of control and loving it'.
