<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In the midst of our busy, stressful lives and the increasingly chaotic state of our world, we can lose sight of--or never really discover--our personal significance. We desire meaning and fulfillment but battle the stress and loneliness that often push their way into the forefront of life. <br> What makes you <i>significant</i> as an individual? As a woman? As a wife, mother, daughter, or friend? No matter what your age or current course in life, you can come to know your remarkable significance and eternal value. As you thirst for relief from stress and loneliness, you can build a foundation on what is divine and eternal, while also immensely practical for this life on earth. The truths God says about you as a woman are powerful and glorious! <br> In <i>Significant</i>, you will discover that you are the steward of your own self and will be challenged to embrace every season of your life. What is God calling you to do through the power of His Holy Spirit? The days of cowering in fear, hiding behind insignificance, and wallowing in lack of opportunities are over. God is blowing doors wide open for women as never before. It is time for women to march forward in grand anticipation of all that God can do through even one woman submitted to the call of God and filled with His Spirit. <br> So often we look for identity, purpose, and comfort in all the wrong places. We have sought lasting meaning from temporary fixes, immature voices, and cultural Band-Aids. This book is a call to women who possess a relentless desire to discover their unique purpose, to embrace their true identity, and to be comforted by irrepressible hope. <br><i>Significant</i> reminds women from every generation that identity, confidence, and purpose come from who God <i>is</i>--not from how we feel at any given time. How wonderful to know that we are allowed to be both God's masterpiece and a work in progress at the same time! <br><i>You never know your true self until you know yourself in God.</i> <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>Significant </i>is perhaps the most powerful of all Carol McLeod's books. It is Carol at her best. Prepare to be moved out of your comfort zone and into your destiny zone. God has big plans for you, as Carol shows with this powerful statement: 'I believe that, as a woman filled with the power of the Holy Spirit and armed with the plans of God, you should actually do <i>more </i>of what scares you!' I believe every woman in today's generation needs to read this book! <br><i>--Becky Harling</i> <br> International conference speaker <br> Author, <i>Who Do You Say That I Am?</i> and <i>How to Listen so People Will Talk</i><br><br>Carol clearly understands the pulse of women in this generation. She speaks with authority and sensitivity to every woman--just like me--who longs to walk confidently in her God-given purpose. Her keen insights and scriptural context move us from the frustration of craving significance to the fulfillment of fleshing out our calling. <br><i>--Angela Donadio</i> <br> Speaker and author, <i>Finding Joy When Life Is Out of Focus: Philippians--A Study for Joy-Thirsty Women</i> and <br><i>Fearless: Ordinary Women of the Bible Who Dared to Do Extraordinary Things</i><br><br>God has given Carol a timely and powerful message for every woman who will be brave enough to pick up this book and read it. Do you feel invisible to God? Are you struggling with a sense of smallness? The truth is, the King of creation has ordained you to represent Him on the earth with a sound no one else can make. As you read <i>Significant</i>, you will realize afresh that through your unique, God-given personality, you have been carefully selected to personify the royal heart of God for the person in front of you. In <i>Significant</i>, Carol uncovers what the enemy has hidden from you. When you truly know who you are and that royal blood flows through your veins--there is no demon in hell that will be able to stop you. <i>Significant </i>will effectively assist you with how to clothe yourself with your God-given identity. <br><i>--Christy Christopher</i> <br> Speaker and author, <i>Until the Day Breaks and the Shadows Flee</i> and <i>Incredible Intervention</i> <p/> Carol McLeod has done it again. <i>Significant </i>is power-packed with God's purpose, passion, and plans for every woman of God on the planet. I was moved to tears when I read the line, "History would be incomplete without your biography." WHAT IF we lived our lives with that message at the base of our understanding? Thank you, Carol, for sharing from the heart of God in this new book. The seeds planted with these words will produce greatness in those who read and embrace them. <br><i>--Johnie Hampton</i> <br> CEO, Hampton Creative, Tulsa, OK <p/><i>Significant </i>by Carol McLeod is delightfully exhilarating and appropriately sobering. In this new book, Carol comes beside us and reminds us that our significance as women doesn't come from beauty, brains, or talent, but from how God created us for His glorious purposes and plans. Yet sometimes those purposes come through pain and heartache, and Carol holds our hands and shows us how God often does His best work through difficulties. You will come away from <i>Significant </i>encouraged, emboldened, and empowered. <br><i>--Sarah Sundin</i> <br> Best-selling and award-winning author of <i>The Sea Before Us</i> and <i>The Sky Above Us</i> <p/> In <i>Significant</i>, Carol McLeod encourages us, as today's women of faith, to put aside the lies that negate our self-confidence and ministry, and to find our true significance in God. She exposes the misconceptions we've believed for so long and gently leads us to this beautiful truth: we are here to reveal the story of Jesus. Sisters, do not miss this amazing message of inspiration and hope. <br><i>--Kim de Blecourt</i> <br> Author, <i>Until We All Come Home</i> and <i>I Call You Mine</i> <p/> Have you ever read Jeremiah 29:11 and wondered if those plans and purposes of God were for everyone but you? By the end of Carol McLeod's book <i>Significant</i>, you will know with certainty that you personally matter to God. This new confidence of purpose and partnership with the Holy Spirit will motivate you to fulfill God's plans for you to influence the world. The power of <i>Significant </i>comes from two sources. The first is the living Word of God itself, which is masterfully unpacked on every page. The second flows from the life of the author herself, who determined early in her walk with God to courageously live the Word, day in and day out, not just teach it. Encountering God and His daughter Carol will change your life, I promise! <br><i>--Faith Blatchford</i> <br> Author, speaker, and creativity consultant <br> www.faithblatchford.com <p/> Many books have broached the subject of significance and its endless pursuit by humans. In her eleventh book (a significant achievement itself), Carol McLeod explores a different tack on the subject from the perspective of a woman who has nurtured a deep relationship with God and Scripture. I keep recommending Carol's books because they keep getting even better. This one will touch you deeply as you explore not only the Bible, but also Carol's amazing personal story of finding her place of significance and value in life. A treasure awaits. Dig here. <br><i>--Chris Busch</i> <br> Founder and CEO, LightQuest Media, Inc. <p/> You might not think that the world needs you, but it does. God planned it that way. Carol McLeod's new book, <i>Significant</i>, speaks to the most profound truth inside each one of us--our reason for living. This book is important because it reveals that the Lord has connected people to you who are waiting to be shown His love. You may be the response to their prayer. A solution to their problem. An answer to their question. An introduction to Jesus and an invitation to eternal life! No one can speak with your voice, say your words, smile your smile, or shine your light. No one can take your place; it is yours alone to fill. You are destined to impact the world around you in a significant way. This masterful book reveals God's desire for you to be exactly what He made you to be and to live the story no one else can live--the story of your own significant life. <br><i>--John Mason</i> <br> Author, <i>An Enemy Called Average</i> and many other best sellers <p/> If Carol lived any closer to me, a private lunch with her would be on my weekly schedule! She is the mentor women my age need and the friend every woman wants. Carol's willingness to be vulnerable with her longings for significance flow from a security she has in knowing God's good nature. She reminds us that what we long for matters, both to God and for our story! She points us to Him with her every word and models for us how we can experience the same security and peace for ourselves. <br><i>--Heather DeJesus Yates</i> <br> Best-selling author, <i>All the Wild Pearls: A Guide for Passing Down Redemptive Stories</i> <br> and <i>A Mother of Thousands: From Barren to Revolutionary</i> <p/> The Bible confirms, through its many examples of courageous women, that God's call and anointing are not limited to only one gender. In her Scripture-soaked book <i>Significant</i>, Carol McLeod empowers every woman to boldly pursue, and then fully embrace, her God-ordained purpose. <br><i>--Marty Nystrom</i> <br> Author and composer, "As the Deer" and over 120 other worship songs <p/> Girlfriends, God has assigned a mission just for us--but we must choose to accept it. That sounds simple, but it's so easy to become caught up in our fears and all the "But, what if...?" questions that our mission is over before it even begins. That's why I'm so excited about Carol McLeod's new book, <i>Significant</i>. Carol shares encouragement and wisdom to help us find and fulfill the purpose God has for our lives--becoming women of significance for Him. <br><i>--Michelle Cox</i> <br> Coauthor, <i>Just 18 Summers</i> and <i>When God Calls the Heart</i> devotional series <p/> Who am I? Why was I created? What is my purpose? Mankind has asked these questions for centuries, trying to determine how to live a life of significance. To find answers, speaker and teacher Carol McLeod has explored God's Word and gleaned truths from the One who created us. In her new book, <i>Significant</i>, she uses personal stories and biblical insights to lead us into a deeper understanding of who God says we are and why we were created. Through years of joy, pain, parenting, teaching, and serving, Carol knows firsthand what it means to be a woman of significance, and she freely shares her wisdom with us. By reading this book, you too will be inspired to lead a life of <i>significance</i>! <br><i>--Melissa G. Bolden</i> <br> Pastor, author, speaker, and teacher <br> MBolden Ministry <br><br><br>I wish I'd had this book in hand when my wife and I were raising our two daughters, now in their twenties. While addressing the early years of innocent discovery, the teen years of 'Who am I?' and the adult years of 'What's my purpose?' <i>Significant</i> details a striking contrast between a woman who determines her worth through the eyes of the world and one who rises above that distorted outlook to identify herself as who she is in Christ. Carol and I go back to our college days together, and what she has written is a treasure of insight into how God has created every woman for a significant life--a life with eternal purpose. This message is vital for women in today's culture who are battling the business and stress of daily life and need to be grounded in a biblical understanding of who they are. You can bet I'll be getting copies for my wife and daughters. <br><i>--Clay Jacobsen</i> <br> Author of four Christian novels <br> Director, <i>Jeopardy!</i> television program<br><br>If you long to live out a faith that shines with purpose, meaning, and fruitfulness, read <i>Significant</i>!

This book will inspire and prepare you to embrace God's design for your life and to know, beyond any doubt, how much you are loved by Him. Read it first for yourself and then gather your friends together and use <i>Significant </i>as a small group study. <br><i>--Carol Kent</i> <br> Speaker and author, <i>Becoming a Woman of Influence</i><br><br>Once again, my dear friend Carol McLeod masterfully motivates with truth, wisdom, and insights, which her years of life, motherhood, and service have given her. She knows the way and compels us to follow, finding deeper meaning and joy than we thought were possible. Her gift is a gift to the world! <br><i>--Lynette Lewis</i> <br> Author, speaker, business consultant, TEDx presenter, and pastor's wife<br><br>This book will speak to everyone who reads it! We are bombarded with multiple opportunities to feel inadequate and irrelevant when it comes to being a wife, mother, friend, employee, or significant other. We get lost in the caretaker role and completely forget that we are children of God who are loved unconditionally and have a divine purpose. God is with us and for us, and <i>Significant</i> will help you understand the depths of God's love for you. By applying Scripture to everyday challenges, Carol has a unique gift in sharing what so many of us feel. This book is a life changer! <br><i>--Robbie Raugh</i>, RN/Nutritionist <br> Author, <i>The Raw Truth Recharge: 7 Truths for Total Health and Fitness</i> <br> Host, <i>The Raw Truth with Robbie Raugh</i>, ESPN Radio, WDCX radio <br> Cohost, <i>The Keri and Robbie Show</i>, WDCX radio<br><br>Wow, this new book by Carol McLeod, <i>Significant: Becoming a Woman of Unique Purpose, True Identity, and Irrepressible Hope</i>, will challenge every woman's paradigm about finding identity in Christ! Carol reminds us, emphatically, that if you don't discover you are known by God, you will always be looking to be known by something or someone else. And you will never be satisfied. I know this book's target is women, but I have personally been blessed and helped by Carol's words. My first copy of this book goes to my wife. <br><i>--Tim Cameron</i> <br> Educator and speaker <br> Author, <i>The Forty-Day Word Fast</i> <br> Husband of forty-eight years<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Carol McLeod is a popular speaker at women's conferences and retreats through Carol McLeod Ministries.
