WINNER OF CHRISTIANITY TODAY'S 2021 BOOK AWARD FOR CHILDREN & YOUTH

Women of Fearless Faith

Meet women who have used their God-given talents to live out their faith to the fullest. They come from a variety of backgrounds, eras, and ethnicities, but each one has answered the Lord's call on their life in bold and innovative ways.

Children of all ages will be inspired by the stories of

Corrie ten Boom--activist, author, and Holocaust survivor
Laurie Hernandez--gymnast who won both gold and silver medals in her sport
Florence Nightingale--health care reformer
Madeline L'Engle--author of children's literature
Katherine Johnson--trailblazing NASA mathematician

These and the 45 other female spiritual role models featured in this book have made a profound impact on the world around them, and in many cases changed the course of history. Strong, smart, and sometimes outspoken, these women are tremendous examples of God's love in action.

These inspiring profiles will captivate kids' imaginations and encourage them to discover their own gifts and how they can use them to glorify God.

Just the Book I've Been Searching for!

Reviewed in the United States on 11 January 2020

Verified Purchase

This book is exactly what I've been looking for to inspire my daughter by the lives and legacies of Godly women.

Not that I mind my daughter playing princess and fairy tales, but it's so refreshing that she now wants to re-enact the lives of the women in Courageous World Changers.... Especially Elizabeth Greene, the first female MAF pilot.

Personally, I was impressed by the diversity of the selections, and the illustrations are bright, whimsical and attractive. Well done Shirley Raye Redmond and Katya Longhi!

Courageous World Changers 50 True Stories of Daring Women of God by Shirley Raye Redmond

Reviewed in the United States on 10 January 2020

Courageous World Changers provides wonderful short biographies of fifty women who heard God's calling. They are from different centuries, backgrounds, and conquered a variety of challenges. The book is full of women who felt directed to follow God's guidance and face their opportunities. Adults will enjoy the stories and may be familiar with some of the women and some may be new to you. It is a wonderful book to share with the girls in your life and a great opportunity to present them with some courageous role models.
Shirley Raye Redmond does a great job of portraying these biographies in a story like manner that will be easy for children to follow.
I highly recommend this book .

I love this book! The stories about courageous women inspire me to attempt to walk just a little bit in their shoes. Many of the women in this book were women I learned about as a child and then again while I was getting my M.Div. I am planning on giving my (adult) daughters a copy of this book. It’s never too late for today’s women to learn how women of the past changed the world. Thank you Shirley Raye for writing such an inspirational book.

Shirley Raye Redmond highlights women and girls of faith in easy-to-read shorts that show how God influenced His daughters to change the world. I was familiar with some of the women, but not all. I love to learn about courageous Christians from diverse backgrounds. This is a great book for devotional reading, reading with children, and to inspire adults. The illustrations capture the spirit of each world changer. I highly recommend.

I have been a fan of Shirley Raye's christian romances for years and she has taken her love of strong women to a whole new level. Courageous World Changers is a beautifully illustrated book about 50 amazing women. Each page tells the story of a strong Christian woman who has made the world a better place. She includes Gabby Douglas, Bethany Hamilton, and Rosa Parks just to name a few. This book would make a great gift for any of the young women in your life as a way to show them that they can do anything they put their minds to, or even us grown ups who could use a little inspiration now and then.
