LIONESS ARISING

PAPERBACK - WATERBOOK PRESS

Publisher Description

Awaken.

The lioness rises from her slumber, a magnificent image of strength, passion, and beauty. Her mere presence commands the landscape, protects her young, and empowers the lion. In groups, lionesses become a creative and strategic force to be reckoned with, acting as one to change the world around them.

You too are a lioness.

In Lioness Arising, author and speaker Lisa Bevere offers the life and image of the lioness as a fierce and tender model for women. Revealing the surprising characteristics of this amazing creature, Lisa challenges women to discover fresh passion, prowess, and purpose.

Learn what it means to:

• be a stunning representation of strength
• fiercely protect the young
• lend your voice to the silenced
• live in the light and hunt in the dark
• raise a collective roar that changes everything.

Packed with remarkable insights from nature and a rich depth of biblical references to lionesses, Lioness Arising is a call for women to rise up in strength and numbers to change their world.

Jesus is, after all, the lion of the Tribe of Judah.

We are his lioness arising.

• Ed Young, pastor, Fellowship Church, and author of You! The Journey to the Center of Your Worth

"As a co-laborer for the cause of Christ, Lisa Bevere reminds us that the feminine form embodies love, hope, joy, and tenderness, without sacrificing courage, strength, and confidence. This book will remind you that God sees our dreams before we ever see them ourselves. It will inspire you to rise up in your calling and advance Christ's kingdom across the earth."

• Brian and Bobbie Houston, senior pastors, Hillsong Church, Australia

"In Lioness Arising, we can hear God's heart through Lisa, calling women to arise in strength and fierce power and get their hands dirty! Stop peering out from behind the safety and passivity of tradition, and let him position you in his kingdom 'for such a time as this.' We cannot afford to wait any longer - there's too much at stake."

• Ron and Katie Luce, founders, Teen Mania Ministries

"Every female on the planet should read this God-inspired message - a wake-up call for women to rise up and challenge the status quo! Lisa reminds us that we as women are at our best when we lay aside our differences and work together to bring solutions to the world's problems."

• Nancy Alcorn, founder and president, Mercy Ministries

"Lioness Arising shows Lisa Bevere's God-given ability to shed light on spiritual principles as she shapes a world where women rise up as the fierce and beautiful lionesses they were created to be."

• Christine Caine, director, Equip and Empower Ministries, and founder, The A21 Campaign

"Lisa's unfolding revelation of the lioness is both timely and important. All over the earth, we are witnessing an emerging generation of bold, beautiful women of God. Not only this, but a pride of lionesses whose strength and confidence are being restored through the power of the Holy Spirit and the healing sanctuary of the church. Not a power-hungry woman, but a loving, nurturing woman who knows her worth and walks accordingly in the earth today. Not a timid, cowering creature, but a woman with a new song in her heart, a song of radical freedom in Christ. This courageous overcomer is the lioness arising. This compelling work is for every woman who longs to be the answer in the earth today. May you find your inner 'growl' as Lisa leads you toward the Great Lion of Judahthe original Aslan - Jesus Christ."
