Publisher's Summary

Popular speaker and New York Times best-selling author of Woman Evolve, Sarah Jakes Roberts shows women they are not disqualified by their pain and failures and offers encouragement and strength to believe God’s best is still possible.

Everyone has experiences in their lives that stop them in their tracks and become burdens they carry with them everywhere they go. No one knows this better than Sarah Jakes Roberts.

Pregnant at fourteen, married by nineteen, divorced by twenty-two, and all while under the intense spotlight of being Bishop T.D. Jakes’s daughter, Sarah knows what it is to feel buried by failure and aching pain.

But when her journey brought her to faith’s fork in the road, Sarah found she had to choose between staying in the comfort of the pain she knew or daring to make new wounds and move forward.

Now Sarah shares the numerous life lessons she’s learned along the way with other women also struggling to believe they’re not disqualified by their pain and past mistakes. She delves into topics such as allowing the past to empower the present, choosing to step forward while still being afraid, facing struggles in the midst of community, finding intimacy with God outside of preconceived notions of what it should look like, and learning to focus on others.

In Don’t Settle for Safe, Sarah will help you:

  • View your history with positivity
  • Demolish destructive patterns
  • Connect with true intimacy
  • Repurpose your passion into to your purpose
  • Realize your true calling

With deeply personal stories of her own, Sarah helps listeners find their way to the right perspective and the confidence to walk toward the best God has for them.

Honest, real, insightful, very relevant

Sarah speaks from her heart, experience, learning and faith insight.
This book gives perspective, meaning and patience with life. It pulls us forward from pain and frustration to a new perspective that life happens for us and not to us.
I believe this book is relevant to any woman of any age and should be widely heard and read, and passed forward!
Thank you Sarah, I won’t settle for safe any longer! 😊👍💛

This book must be for younger women

This would be a great book for someone in her 20s or 30s but the story isn’t new to me. Very hard for me to keep listening to this even though there were good insights and eloquent prose. I got bored very quickly. I can usually read a book from start to finish pretty fast but half way through I’m not sure I want to hear the rest. There still may be something of value. If I get through it and find that special thing I will come back and change my rating. Right now it feels like I’m wasting my time.
