It tells us to fight for control, hold our ground, and never let anyone see us bend. And yet, Scripture tells a different story. Gentleness: Strength in Stillness shares the wisdom of those who have learned what gentleness is in the hardest seasons of their lives-from cancer diagnoses and sudden loss to broken relationships and the daily chaos of parenting. Each chapter teaches us that gentleness is not a weakness to overcome but that it is:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e * Learned in Surrender: God teaches us to trust His hand instead of fighting for our own.\u003cbr\u003e * Strength Under Control: True gentleness is the same power that could tear down but instead chooses to build up.\u003cbr\u003e * Toward Ourselves: In the stillness of a mirror or the pages of a journal, gentleness becomes the way we finally learn to see, forgive, and love.\u003cbr\u003e * Toward Others: Gentleness shows up in how we parent, forgive, and hold space for the people entrusted to us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith contributions from Olubusola Adelugba, Carrie Alexander, Beverly Kay Dillow, Monica Martinez, Rebecca J. Peters, Debbie Petty, Regina Josephine Stabile, Anastasia T.

It means placing it, gladly, in hands stronger than our own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"hope*books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47464708178108,"sku":"9798891853928","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0127\/4635\/8848\/files\/9798891853928.jpg?v=1789152031","url":"https:\/\/shop.hopewriters.com\/products\/gentleness-strength-in-stillness","provider":"hope*books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
