Lysa TerKeurst is the President of Proverbs 31 Ministries and a New York Times Best Selling author. In her new book, "Uninvited", Lysa is vulnerable and candid about her own personal experiences of rejection and encourages the readers that even in the midst of loneliness, rejection or pain, our importance doesn't lie in others' opinion of us. Our importance is living a life based on who God says we are.

  • My low self worth and lack of self identity was a product of not learning how to have this via my parents...or anyone. It prepped me to marry an abuser, I fell for the "You Complete Me" mess~ thanks Jerry McGuire. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Finding my self worth in God and within myself was what needed to be found in order for me to leave the hell on earth I was living in. 14 years of horrible abuse and self erasure. More churches need to teach this, especially before two people enter into marriage! Thank you, Lysa! You are doing such beautiful work~ praise God the Father!

    I appreciate her because she is honest about herself and then helps others to get out of a self imposed trap. I finally see what Ive been battling with all these years
  • I love how you said the love of others compared to the fullness of Gods love is “scraps of love.” That comment ministered to me. Thank you

    Knowing now what Lysa was going through in her personal life at the time of this interview, I am BLOWN AWAY by her. She is amazing!!! When I grow up, I hope to be half the woman Lysa is. (Even though she's only about a year older than me.) ;)

    I have your book and I picked it up after a few rejections I experienced. I love this book! ❤️ One rejection was from this group of women whom I wanted to be friends with, but the feelings weren't mutual. I had this out of proportion reaction to them. But it wasn't them. It triggered memories from my childhood of being rejected and excluded and uninvited from women of all ages in childhood. God told me I needed to heal this wound.

    Amen! Truly adore the anointing on her life! I followed the 6 week Bible study on Uninvited, and it was breathtaking, and an eye opener in areas of my life where I needed to purge things out of my life, to let love in. Thank you, Woman, of God for this Book!
