Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Standing Strong
Alli Worthington · 2020
73/100
👍 Worth It
Worthington's three-part structure is genuinely useful for individual reading or group study, and the Christ-centered grounding keeps the book from sliding into generic self-help. The Ann Voskamp endorsement and Zondervan imprint are real quality signals within the evangelical women's space. Readers outside that tradition will find little crossover value.
