While our culture places great emphasis on comfort, security, control, and success, there are deeper rewards for those who take hold of God's promises and reach out in the Name of Christ. Adventure, faith, miracles, and a deep knowledge of Jesus Christ. This is what Susie calls her readers to realize.

Author and speaker Susie Larson makes her message graspable, accessible, and doable. Her stories, scriptural devotionals, and study questions set the stage for a first-hand experience of God's heart for personal freedom, for the plight of the suffering, and for a conviction to get involved with His work among those in need.
While the book's primary focus is on the reader's journey into freedom, it clearly conveys our shared responsibility to 'seek justice, rescue the oppressed, defend the orphan, [and] plead for the widow' (Isaiah 1:17, nrsv). This is God's expectation for those who truly know Him.

When we live in bondage to our fears, insecurities, shame, guilt, despair, or sinful appetites, we live self-focused lives. But when we embrace our freedom in Christ, our hearts are released from captivity and we view everything around us as tools to bring that same freedom to those who desperately need it. This book is for the woman who wants to grow stronger in her walk of faith and who wants to gain a greater view of God's heart for the world. May she be provoked, to be as free as God meant her to be. And as a result, may she become an advocate for the freedoms of others.

“Do you have it in you to take the uncommon road?”

says Susie Larson as she challenges you to fight against the ordinary and move toward the extraordinary. Guiding you through scenarios in which victory is found in the difficult task of responding in faith, Susie walks with you as a friend. Her experiences have shown her that to fight the current of that which is ordinary, you must look to the Lord, who stoops to make the common great.

Susie explains the distinction between a common and uncommon woman is often tied to their reactions to circumstances. The common person reacts with pat answers; she casually dismisses others in their moments of weakness; she stays on the low road to build her case.

But the uncommon woman responds to God’s love. She covers another’s weakness, she chooses her battles wisely, she seeks the high road. She knows that Jesus is alive and active and willing to change her life. And where she walks, then, becomes holy ground.

Perhaps you don’t think you can be extraordinary. Maybe you do not believe you can be a godly influence on all those around you. The Uncommon Woman will show you how to be uncommon in your circumstance, regardless of the situation. Each chapter includes biblical teaching, personal illustrations, and a “what about you?” section to give you a chance to reflect on what you’ve read.

Take a chance. Dare to be uncommon.
