About this listen
Learn to let go of the guilt, shake off the shame, and fend off your fears as you fight with your faith. God made you to stand strong in any adversity, and bestselling author Alli Worthington will show you how.
We live in a culture that constantly tells you who you should be as a modern woman. You're told that you aren't enough and that you don't have what it takes to chase your dreams. But it doesn't have to be that way.
For the woman who longs to break free from what holds her back, Standing Strong offers a no-nonsense, guilt-free guide to take back your life from self-doubt.
In Standing Strong, Alli comes alongside you as you:
- Eliminate, once and for all, the lies that keep you from being who God made you to be
- Become an unbreakable woman who finds her strength from God for any adversity
- Gain strategies for tackling the obstacles of self-doubt, fear, and insecurity
- Find the confidence to say yes and amen to God's call on your life
You can't break a woman who draws her strength from God. You're stronger than you think, and you're worth more than you could ever imagine. Let this book help you cement these realities in your life.
Praise for Standing Strong:
"The path to fulfilling our God-given purpose is filled with numerous twists, turns, and challenges. In Standing Strong, Alli shows us how to press through our fears, doubts, and self-imposed limitations in order to embark on the exhilarating faith-filled adventure we are each destined to live. This book is full of wisdom, grace, and honesty. I loved it and know you will too."
--Christine Caine, Founder of A21 and Propel Women
"If your life has been plagued by self-doubt, by feelings of never being enough, Alli has given us a road map to saying yes to who God says we are."

Are your thoughts holding you captive? I’ll never be good enough. Other people have better lives than I do. God couldn’t really love me. Jennie Allen knows what it’s like to swirl in a spiral of destructive thoughts, but she also knows we don’t have to stay stuck in toxic thinking patterns. As she discovered in her own life, God built a way for us to escape that downward spiral. Freedom comes when we refuse to be victims to our thoughts and realize we have already been equipped with power from God to fight and win the war for our minds.

There are times in life when we look back and feel desperate to make time stand still, especially when unexpected change happens and all we want is for things to go back to how they were. But we can't stop the flow of life, and we can't stop time. And looking back doesn't enable us to go back. It just makes us stuck. In a place. In a space. In a memory. In a mindset. In a habit.

The world is hurting and our lives are waiting, we don't have time stay stuck--we've got to make a move. You Are the Girl for the Job is not an empty catchphrase. It's the straight-up truth God has proclaimed over your life from the beginning. It's not a statement about your capacity, but rather about His.

Most lifestyle books for women are saying one of two things: "Hustle!" or "Slow down!" We are either prodded into endless activity and productivity or told that what we really need is to prioritize rest, relaxation, and simply "being." Is it any wonder we feel torn in every direction, worried we're missing the opportunities God has placed before us while at the same time feeling guilty that we're doing too much? Into this confusion comes Heather MacFadyen's empowering message to simply occupy your God-given space—a Hebrew definition of humility.

Who would imagine being friends with Eve - the woman who’s been held responsible for the fall of humanity (and cramps) for thousands of years? Certainly not Sarah Jakes Roberts. That is, not until Sarah discovered she is more like Eve than she cares to admit. Everyone faces trials, and everyone will mess up. But failure should not be the focus. Your focus should not be on who you were but rather the pursuit of who you can become.

Together, we will move toward trusting God again, knowing that even though Christian community may fail us, the love of God never fails. When we say yes to God, we don’t say yes to church politics, ladder climbing, or burnout. We say yes to Jesus. We say yes to hope. We say yes to much that we can still embrace.

I just can't say enough about this book!
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE read this book NOW! I have shared it with all of my friends and family because it is life-changing and it would just be cruel to not share this wisdom with those that I love.
I love that the author, Alli, narrates her own book and makes you feel as if she has been a forever friend. Alli is a straight forward, down to earth girl and I LOVE the ALT version (Alli Living Translation). I normally multitask and listen to my books as I'm washing dishes, folding clothes, driving my kids to and from activities, but this book is SO amazing that I just HAD to take notes! I have also ordered the paperback version and I plan on devouring this again and again. This book is LIFE CHANGING, ladies! I have NEVER, and I do mean NEVER, connected to a book like a have Standing Strong! God placed this in my path at the PERFECT time! I play worship music 24/7 in our home and plan on replacing (for this season) with Standing Strong. I want my girls to grow up with the wisdom that Alli shares in this book. I want my girls to know that Standing Strong is about yielding to God and getting out of their own way. I just can't say enough about this book. I don't think I will ever find a book that tops this one.

Women need this message TODAY
“Standing Strong” is the book that women need to read right now! It’s timely, needed and will support women as we stand strong in our faith and with each other. Gone are the days that women are “enough”.... we are “more than enough” and it’s time to learn to stand strong in our faith for not only the glory of the kingdom, but to be strong women for our families, employees/employers, and in the world. Thank you Alli for poring your heart out in this book and teaching us that we too can Stand Strong!

Refreshingly different
So I was skeptical about this book at first. In a world of all these self help, girls rule, follow your own path, women’s movement self care all day everyday world we currently live in, I was afraid this book would be the same. I was ABSOLUTELY proven wrong and so ecstatic within just a few pages of reading (or listening I should say). I had many outbursts of “amen”, “right on”, and “gut punch”! I couldn’t stop and would have finished within the day if my precious darlings weren’t in need. Alli did a great job going to scripture to show us her point or thought path everytime....I can read that and hide those truths in my pocket! So thankful for a woman who wrote about her convictions, trials, her oppsie moments and her wins. Refreshing is an understatement!

Amazing story of faith and resilience!
Standing Strong encourages women to hold on to their God-given goals and dreams no matter what life brings their way. Alli provides countless examples from her own faith journey and gives tangible guidance for standing strong when faced with adversity. This book is a kick-in-the pants reminder that no one can hold you back when you pray, trust, obey and follow God’s call on your life. Alli’s open and honest testimony is a reflection of God’s goodness despite hardship and his faithful provision in all things. No matter where you are on your own journey, Alli’s wit and wisdom are sure to leave you with a smile and determination to take a step of faith and stand strong in the process.

45 and feel lost
This book spoke right to where I am sitting. I have been in a funk and a bit of a pitty party. This book allowed me to feel normal in this season I have an am in. Self esteem is pretty much zero and purpose is at a negative - this book allowed me to be refreshed and encouraged me. I know God has me but understanding how I have not been partnering with God and seeking clarity and strength in this season were two of the big moments for me in this book.
Thank you Alli for being so transparent and allowing us into your story! You words spoke directly to me!
