Today is part one of a two-part series to introduce Amber's new book, "Seeking a Gentle and Quiet Spirit in a Harsh and Noisy World." The apostle Peter tells women that a gentle and quiet spirit is of great worth in God's sight. That may sound disturbing for those of us who have not always identified as quiet and gentle. Good news! There's more to this than what we might initially think.
