Title: The Fight to Flourish
Author: Jennie Lusko
Release Date: May 5th, 2020
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Synopsis:
How do you live a full life? Perhaps the better question is, how do you really live when life throws you sucker punches, when you face obstacles that seem to snuff out your faith, when you lose something or someone precious to you? In The Fight to Flourish, Jennie Lusko encourages women to suit up and thrive, not just in the dailies of monotony and routine but even in the most desolate of places. Using the backdrop of her second-born daughter Lenya’s passing into heaven five days before Christmas in 2012, Jennie invites readers to embrace whatever destination they’ve landed. She teaches how, through the good and the bad, they can learn to grow, be strong, draw near to God, and be a blessing to others. It is in this sacred space of pain and promise that women can begin to flourish.
My Review:
The Fight to Flourish is an inspiring book about living the life we were meant to live. She uses her own experiences and tragedies to help readers understand that we can make it through the dark times and flourish.
I was heartbroken when Jennie opened up about the loss of her daughter. I know her faith had to be tested and I was inspired to see how she pushed forward. We have all dealt with loss and grief in some way and Jennie’s vulnerability made this book so relatable. She used her experiences to show other’s that it is possible to find good in the world.
Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
I give The Fight to Flourish 4 stars. I know this book will inspire so many to keep pushing through even when we face low moments in our lives. With hope and faith, Jennie reminds readers that we are meant to thrive and there is no room for giving up!
