msh09Dallas, TXAge: 35-44Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Riveting!January 15, 2012msh09Dallas, TXAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Kim Meeder is a riveting story-teller who writes about her passion for the beautiful outdoors, high-adventure, horses, and people. Each chapter of Fierce Beauty is a story from her life, be it one of her incredible adventures or a changed life at her ranch. Kim and her husband run the Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch, an organization that rescues abused horses and pairs them with children in need. She uses these anecdotes from her life to draw you in and then wraps up each one with a spiritual truth. I have never read any of Meeder's other books, but I plan to head to the store tomorrow to buy another one. I loved the descriptions of her adventures. I was glued to the book, eager to read where the turn of a page would take me. Quite often, though, I would have to put the book down for several days after reading a couple of chapters because the spiritual truths hit me deep and I needed to spend time pondering them. "My unfaithfulness to Him did not change, hinder, or diminish His faithfulness to me. He has been and always will be the only immovable truth we will ever know." (p. 83) "This world defines peace as the absence of conflict, but God's peace is confident assurance in any circumstance." (p. 90) "It's an amazing truth that out of our King's great mercy, He delivers us through our suffering so that our past hurts can heal others' futures." (p. 151)
I received this book from the publisher in order to provide a review. The above review is my honest opinion of Fierce Beauty by Kim Meeder. -
Phronsie HowellAge: 25-34Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Princess or WarriorDecember 29, 2011Phronsie HowellAge: 25-34Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Sometimes the truth is harsh and Kim Meeder doesn't back down when she tells us that we need to stop thinking about ourselves and start thinking about God. As women we need to stop buying into society's definition of beautiful and start listening to God's definition. Kim uses personal experiences to show us just how this flawed thinking can cause problems not only for us but for others. We're to glorify God, not ourselves.
Step up to the front-line and be a warrior for the Kingdom instead of a princess on the sidelines.
