About this listen

Read by the author.

Greatness and mediocrity are separated by one thing--how you respond to rejection.

People who crumble beneath the weight of rejection never realize their full potential, but people who learn to use rejection as a catalyst experience fulfillment in their lives.

Nona Jones has experienced her fair share of rejection. Some of her earliest memories are of her mother's rejection, and those feelings persisted throughout her schooling, her career, and her infertility journey. Things that seemed to come easily to others seemed unavailable to Nona--but what could have taken her down the path of failure actually brought her to her greatest achievements.

The secret? Seeing rejection as the gift that it is.

The perfect follow-up to her previous book, Killing Comparison, The Gift of Rejection is a practical guide offering a new, unconventional framework for rejection; instead of being a pain to heal, it becomes a teacher to learn from. Nona shares insightful research, practical steps, and powerful stories from her own life as well as the lives of Bible characters and modern-day trailblazers to help you:

  • Identify the root of rejection and how it's manifesting in your life
  • Pinpoint when the pain of rejection is triggering you and counter it with truth
  • Respond to rejection with resilience and resolve rather than fear and defeat
  • Anchor your identity in who God is calling you to be

Rejection is a gift that can help you build resilience, character, and success. The Gift of Rejection will teach you how.

Nona's personal experiences were relatable.

I appreciate Nona's vulnerability in sharing her story. Her story and focus questions were very useful in reflecting in my own journey to healing. Thank you Nova.

Helpful

It was not until I watched an interview with Nona Jones that it hit me, I too was struggling with rejection, which was the root of relationship issues I encountered. After diving into her other YT videos and this book, I have a better understanding of the concept and better equipped to navigate using the OPEN framework.

My one recommendation for audibooks is to slow down reciting the scriptures and questions.tendsse parts she tends to speed up to get the following points. Otherwise, the content and delivery are good.

Thanks for this tool. Thanks for sharing your story.

Amazing

I just started this book 📖 it's my own life story; I can't believe it. My abuser also could not read because of being kicked out of school in 3rd grade. I'm shocked 😳 it's all the same as my mother, and we also had the same attitude. God, WHEN YOU THINK IT'S ONLY YOU !!! MAY GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!

My soul on the pages

Nona has lived out loud so that we all can find the courage to do the same. I came across Nona Jones through another social media figure years ago. I purchased the book "Success from the Inside Out". I couldn't finish it. My soul was not ready for it. I picked it up throughout the years as I "felt" ready to be healed in certain areas of my life.

The book was a great beginning to my journey. Since then I have purchased "Killing Comparison" and now "The Gift of Rejection". This go round, I felt that same temptation to shrink back immediately when seeing the title. But since that is not the season I am in (I'm in the "I can do all things, including heal with God" season), so I chose the audiobook. I wanted every part of the goodness of God within these pages to seep down deep into my soul. Hearing it is different for me.

As I listened, once again, it was as if Nona left my soul on the pages of her book. When I tell you this book is timely and a divine gift to this world, (these words are an understatement). Nona lives the book in such a way that we are all encouraged to write our stories as well. Whether it's actually a published work, a blog, a podcast or a divinely led conversation with a stranger.

All I can say is... "Thank you Nona. Thank you for not giving up. Thank you for choosing each day to go it again. Thank you for your determination and grit. Thank you for your faith, displayed so beautifully in the work that God has given your hands to do. Thank you for leading the way. Thank you for being enough in the moments you felt like you weren't. Thank you for choosing to live and not only exist. Thank you for the example. Thank you for this life changing gift!"

May God richly reward the work of your hands as HE continues to heal your heart and allow HIS glory and power to be displayed through you.

The story.

The story and the advice is so spot on and captivating. I wish I could put into words what this book is doing for me. This book is going to bring so many people healing in all areas of their lives. I’m currently listening for the second time. I’m so grateful God used Nona to share this wisdoms. Well done.
