The Strength of a Woman
By Linda Waterman
Your family. Business. Church. Neighborhood. They all need you as a leader. Yet
you may not realize you are one. Many women never see themselves as leaders, but
their leadership skills play a vital role in shaping both lives and events.
Whatever your calling in life, you’ll find that you’re most effective when you’ve
discovered your God-given strength as a leader—a strength that shows up in traits
such as foresight, discipline, motivation, and encouragement.
Designed to work as either a personal or group study, The Strength of a Woman will
help you discover—and learn to use—your own personal leadership abilities.

Dancing in the Storm
“What happened to the DREAM I had nurtured for a lifetime? A SIMPLE LIFE…neat, orderly, predictable and SAFE?”
When Linda McGinn Waterman’s life fell apart, a frightful truth became obvious: Change and the resulting chaos are everywhere, actually forming the very fabric of life. She tried to resist it, manage it, plan for it, and hide from it with no success. Now she tried something new: She embraced it.
Are there times when the uncertainties of life overwhelm you? In this intriguing book, Waterman shows that chaos actually does you a favor by smashing the false foundations on which you try to build your life. As you learn to accept rather than resist the chaos, God’s pattern for your life will emerge from the tempest, bringing you rest, calm, joy and adventure.
When you make the choice to dance in the storm, “Life will be good. And you will not regret the choice,” promises Waterman. “You will choose it time and time again as chaos confronts you. Everything is uncertain, except God, of course. And that’s the most assuring exception there is.”
