Story
If you’re anything like Sophie Hudson, your initial reaction to the hard stuff - the pieces and parts of life that keep you up at night, relentlessly reminding you that the “simple and easy” path is somehow a turn you must’ve missed along the way - is to try to figure out how to make it go away. You might wonder if it’s possible to just ignore it, or, better yet, to burn it all down. But what Sophie found during a particularly difficult stretch is that the Lord, through his word and his people, faithfully reveals how to get up, straighten up, and stand all the way up.

In medieval times, uncharted waters were marked on maps as Here Be Dragons to signify that no one knew what dangers might lie ahead. Melanie Shankle quips that the years spent raising our teenage daughters could be labeled the same due to the uncertainties before us. Filled with personal stories and written in the same whimsical and honest style Melanie is known for, Here Be Dragons will have you both laughing out loud and crying—as you confront the challenges of raising your own strong, independent daughter while fighting dragons along the way.

Story
It's easy for women to focus on what seems to separate us: differences in age, parenting styles, career goals, or maybe even core beliefs about whether leggings can adequately serve as pants (the struggle is real, y'all). The reality, though, is that we have far more in common than we realize, and since Scripture shows us the blessing of friendships across generations, it's high time we step out of our same-age, same-stage silos. Life is so much better that way.

There's nothing quite like family - and some people would say that there's nothing better. But in a world where we sometimes know more about the Kardashians than we do about the people sleeping right down the hall, it's easy to forget that walking through life with our family offers all sorts of joy wrapped up in the seemingly mundane. There's even a little bit of sacred sitting smack-dab in the middle of the ordinary. And since time's-a-wastin', we need to be careful that we don't take our people - and their stories - for granted.

An only child who always wanted a place to belong, Lenz found the safe haven she’d been searching for in a Bible study group with other Hollywood creatives. However, the group soon morphed into something more sinister.

If you’re anything like Sophie Hudson, your initial reaction to the hard stuff - the pieces and parts of life that keep you up at night, relentlessly reminding you that the “simple and easy” path is somehow a turn you must’ve missed along the way - is to try to figure out how to make it go away. You might wonder if it’s possible to just ignore it, or, better yet, to burn it all down. But what Sophie found during a particularly difficult stretch is that the Lord, through his word and his people, faithfully reveals how to get up, straighten up, and stand all the way up.

In medieval times, uncharted waters were marked on maps as Here Be Dragons to signify that no one knew what dangers might lie ahead. Melanie Shankle quips that the years spent raising our teenage daughters could be labeled the same due to the uncertainties before us. Filled with personal stories and written in the same whimsical and honest style Melanie is known for, Here Be Dragons will have you both laughing out loud and crying—as you confront the challenges of raising your own strong, independent daughter while fighting dragons along the way.

Story
It's easy for women to focus on what seems to separate us: differences in age, parenting styles, career goals, or maybe even core beliefs about whether leggings can adequately serve as pants (the struggle is real, y'all). The reality, though, is that we have far more in common than we realize, and since Scripture shows us the blessing of friendships across generations, it's high time we step out of our same-age, same-stage silos. Life is so much better that way.

Story
There's nothing quite like family - and some people would say that there's nothing better. But in a world where we sometimes know more about the Kardashians than we do about the people sleeping right down the hall, it's easy to forget that walking through life with our family offers all sorts of joy wrapped up in the seemingly mundane. There's even a little bit of sacred sitting smack-dab in the middle of the ordinary. And since time's-a-wastin', we need to be careful that we don't take our people - and their stories - for granted.

Story
Born White in the heart of Zululand during the racial apartheid, Lisa-Jo Baker longed to write a new future for her children—a longing that set her on a journey to understand where she fit into a story of violence and faith, history and race. Before marriage and motherhood, she came to the United States to study to become a human rights advocate. When she naïvely walked right into America’s own turbulent racial landscape, Baker experienced the kind of painful awakening that is both individual and universal, personal and social.

Story
If you’re anything like Sophie Hudson, your initial reaction to the hard stuff - the pieces and parts of life that keep you up at night, relentlessly reminding you that the “simple and easy” path is somehow a turn you must’ve missed along the way - is to try to figure out how to make it go away. You might wonder if it’s possible to just ignore it, or, better yet, to burn it all down. But what Sophie found during a particularly difficult stretch is that the Lord, through his word and his people, faithfully reveals how to get up, straighten up, and stand all the way up.

Sound familiar? That's when the nudge happened. Turn off your phone and keep turning off your phone. In The Unplugged Hours, Hannah demonstrates how the act of powering down changed her entire life.

Melanie Shankle tackles these questions head-on. Easygoing and relatable, she speaks directly to the heart of women of all ages who are longing to find significance and meaning in the normal, sometimes mundane world of driving carpool to soccer practice, attending class on their college campus, cooking meals for their family, or taking care of a sick loved one.

Even in the midst of our broken world’s traumas and trials, you can: learn to lower the volume of life and truly hear God; experience what it means to speak God’s Word over yourself for real victory; discover how to pray His promises instead of praying over the problems; and more....

Spills her heart
I absolutely loved this book. I have read every book Sophie has written and each one is better than the last. In this book, Sophie, opens her heart and encourages women to step up and be leaders. I also love audiobooks, because I love to hear Sophie read the book - it’s like she is just taking to you

We are ALL leading somewhere.
Whether you’re a SAHM, corporate big wig, church volunteer, business owner - regardless of what you’re doing in your life chances are you are leading someone. Sophie uses her keen wit, delightful story telling abilities and years of work and observations to walk us through the life of Moses, his leadership and how we can see ourselves as the LEADER God created us to be. I literally LOLd through this book and am buying the actual paper copy so I can go back and underline, highlight and reference as needed. This book helped me see myself as a true leader and not just someone who likes to use her hospitality gifts to serve others. And I am now satisfied being a low-capacity leader (I thought the only option was high-capacity, but you’ll understand when you read) Thank you thank you thank you! Highly recommend every women read this book.

What a joy this book was!
I've been listening to author Sophie Hudson's podcast for years, enjoying her wisdom and humor. A Fine Sight to See was filled with that and more. I've always thought of Exodus as a bit daunting, but I so appreciated the leadership lessons she shared using scriptures and stories from the chapter of Exodus. I especially enjoyed her personal stories and found myself nodding emphatically and highlighting my ebook with abandon. What a joy this book was! It was an especially wonderful treat to have her be the narrator- I just love her comforting voice!

Women, Leadership and Moses
Best book I’ve listened to or read this year!
Sophie Hudson weaved a beautiful picture of leadership by Moses in Exodus and Deuteronomy and her own personal life experiences. Her perspective and insight into leadership is refreshing. I will be recommending this book and giving this book away to others as gifts.

Wonderful book!
I have listened to several Sophie Hudson books. So, I was very excited about her new book. I enjoy her writing style. Her message is very clear and delivered with a side of humor that I find so enjoyable. I am delighted that the author reads the book herself. As an Alabama native, I enjoy hearing Sophie’s Southern accent.’It feels like home to me!

Sophie asking us to stand all the way up
Classic Sophie Hudson coming with a loving and convicting word. Making it clear that regardless of the spectrum of beliefs or ideologies, women are leaders every day. I appreciate her ability to break down the historical concepts. All with her voice, flare, & stories. I do need to read a physical copy to better process and underline, but I wanted to make sure I heard it in her voice.
