The Silenced Army

How to Break the Silence The apostle Paul wrote in 1 Timothy 1:7, "For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline." We see clearly that we have been empowered through the Holy Spirit, so why are the Christian women of the world staying silent? They have allowed fear, pain, doubt, shame, pride, and the culture to keep them from their purpose: to change the world around them for Jesus. Author Nichole Chavez inspires Christian women to leave the ranks of the silenced army and join God's volunteer army. She offers this piece of encouragement to women: "We don't have to become victims of this sinful world, but rather volunteers to change it." This book is a call to action for women who want to fulfill their purpose of sharing God's love with the world-in their congregations or in their communities.
