There are over 4000 promises and pledges from God to us in the Bible. It’s hard to comprehend so many vows given freely to us, let alone claim them. How did God know so long ago what promises we’d need, billions of people over seven thousand years in all cultures and times, and the promises He made way back in Genesis are still relevant in many ways to what we need now.

Anti-ego ideologies often equivocate between egoism and narcissism and treat both concepts as if they were the same. The proponents of “anti-ego” do not like to witness a person expressing pride and self-regard, or when he is praised for having done something good or beneficial for himself. “Who does he think he is?” they ask. In this book I want to straighten out our understanding of the human ego and I want to give you tools to help you feel ...

In this book, Kate tackles hustle culture head-on, exploring the ways in which women are primed to become relentless strivers.
