Today Kathi and Vivian Mabuni are talking about why representation matters and how we can communicate the importance of it through our writing and speaking. Each of us has a unique base that we draw from, and as we learn and grow as communicators, we expand that base and broaden our perspective. Join in to learn about how broadening that base in a certain way allows more people to relate and:

• Makes a better reading experience for the reader
• Helps our audience to see themselves in our writing
• Gets us out of a narrow way of thinking

 

 

 

 

 

 

As women after God's heart, we honestly desire to please God. We want to be used by Him and to experience the peace and fulfillment He wants for us. Yet it's all too easy to fall into living mechanically, with a rule-based approach to the Christian life, or to focus on getting what we want when we want it. Even when we want to be willing, saying yes to whatever God asks often feels scary, and the distractions of this world get in the way.

Vivian Mabuni knows this all too well, but she's discovered that openhanded living starts with an intentional posture of the heart. Through surrender to His will, we draw closer to God in a way that makes our day-to-day lives more purposeful, powerful, and pleasing to Him.

With Vivian's warm encouragement in Open Hands, Willing Heart, you'll learn how to step out in courageous trust as you invite God to give and take--and move and work--in your life as He sees fit. Along the way you'll discover true joy and serenity that will carry you through every circumstance.
