Publisher's Description
Many women feel as if they do not do enough and are not enough. They're always trying hard to be good: a good friend, mom, wife, Christian, employee, or ministry leader, hoping for that "atta-girl" from God. With compelling illustrations from her own life, Christine Hoover leads readers to the understanding that they're living by a lesser gospel, the gospel of goodness, one without Christ's grace. Relying on Scripture, they can start asking, "What does God want for me?" before asking, "What does God want from me?" Women will breathe a sigh of relief at this powerful message of freedom and hope. Rather than serving God out of obligation or duty, they'll be compelled to love and serve God with great joy.

“From Good to Grace is a song of freedom for the world-weary woman; for the believer who wonders if she’ll ever feel good enough; for the single person, wife, or mother who longs to matter. It is the promise of an extraordinary life in an upside-down kingdom, a must-read in an age when the spirit of the church thirsts to be revived.”
“Christine helps untangle the knots we can make of the gospel. With humble transparency and gifted clarity, she works out the kinks in our understanding of grace. This book is full of wisdom, and as you read it, your soul will breathe a deep sigh of relief. Jesus has accomplished for us far more than we often realize, and the results of his victory are liberating!”
“Christine Hoover has a surprise for you. The surprise isn’t something that can be bought, traded, or stolen. The surprise Christine offers comes from deep inside her heart as she lets her personal encounter with Jesus roll onto the printed pages of her book. Christine is passionate about encouraging women to live and lead from grace. Her new book, From Good to Grace, is a perfect title for the adventure of faith you will embrace through its pages. Her own words “I’m ordinary” help us as women relax and receive fresh insight that takes us from the Gospel of Goodness to the Gospel of Grace! Enjoy the journey. You will be blessed.”
“Christine has written the book that I believe women in our generation are really dying to read. In a practical and honest way, she exposes the truth and lets God’s grace do its very good work in our lives. This book has been a huge tool to help me stop shouting with a raspy and tired voice, ‘I’m good! I’m good, aren’t I?’ and start looking to my very good God who covers me in his love.”
