Book Synopsis
A call for truth and freedom in a culture saturated with false information and deceit, from the bestselling author of The Love Everybody Wants. Are you tired of the noise, the lies, the pressure to be someone you're not? You wear the smile. You play the part. But you're caught in the exhausting cycle of pretending and performing. You chase the version of freedom the world promised would satisfy. And yet, you're still not free. The lies we believe--about ourselves, our worth, and what will truly make us whole--keep us bound in invisible chains. But there is a way out. Madison Prewett Troutt invites you to confront the lies that are holding you hostage and to step boldly into the life you were created to live--a life anchored in truth that leads to a freer you. Dare to Be True is real talk from Madison's own life lessons and experiences that will help you: - call out the lies that keep you stuck and small- silence the noise of culture and tune into God's truth
- stop spiraling in sin, shame, and isolation, and receive grace
- step into your purpose with clarity and without apology This isn't just a book about recognizing what's wrong. It's an invitation to step into the abundant life you were made for. With interactive challenges at the end of each chapter--Truths for You and Dares to Do--you'll be pushed, encouraged, and equipped to live with boldness, purpose, and freedom. Fake freedom will leave you empty. But real freedom? The kind your soul has been craving? That starts when you dare to be true.

I was fortunate to be a part of Madi’s book launch team and read this book early, It is full of so much truth. My favorite part of the book is that Madi includes Dares that you can implement in your day to day. If your wanting to defeat lies from the enemy and live out your truth, I recommend this book!

This book is like a game of Truth or Dare… but the Jesus version. As Madi describes: “It’s a truth-and-dare process. It takes both faith in the truth and daring to follow that truth with action.” Dare to Be True is a book every Christian should read—about discovering the TRUTH that breaks through the lies we’ve believed, and DARING ourselves to take bold steps toward freedom in Christ. Madi does a wonderful job of weaving together Scripture, real-life experiences, and biblical stories while pointing out how the modern world constantly shifts “their truth.” She shows us that freedom only comes through God’s truth (John 8:32: “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”). The first half of the book focuses on Truth—covering areas such as being bound, believing lies, wrestling with sin, carrying shame, and rediscovering who God says we are. Madi makes these deep topics incredibly relatable: “Maybe you feel stuck. You feel like a shell of yourself. You are living with something that is slowly sucking the life right out of you. And you just want to be free…” “Maybe you can’t identify the underlying problem you’re dealing with, but you can identify symptoms like anxiety, depression, stress, apathy, or loneliness.” “…you can be FREE from what is breaking you!!!” The second half of the book is about Dare—daring to live in prayer, daring to pursue purity, daring to live in community, daring to live differently, and more. Each chapter not only teaches biblical principles but also equips you with practical steps to apply them. Every chapter ends with a Dare To Do—a motivational action step that helps you begin walking in the truth of who God has called you to be. This book doesn’t shy away from asking hard, reflective questions that are needed for our spiritual growth: “How would you describe your prayer life? How often do you pray? Do you have confidence that God will answer?” “How’s my fruit? How’s my joy? How’s my peace? My patience? My kindness?” (Galatians 5:22–23). “What am I consuming? What movies and shows am I watching? Who am I following? What are my friends like?” Madi’s words are both convicting and encouraging. She reminds us that we are not meant to stay stuck in sin, shame, or comparison—but to walk in the freedom and purpose God has for us (2 Corinthians 3:17: “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”). If you’re feeling stuck in sin, weighed down by mental health struggles, battling addiction, wrestling with comparison, or searching for purpose—this book is for you. Dare to Be True is direct, challenging, and rooted in God’s Word. If you’re ready to be free… Truth or Dare?
Absolutely worth it!

Reading Dare to Be True was so refreshing and encouraging. Madi’s words really spoke to me and challenged me to think about what it means to truly live out my faith with boldness. She writes with so much honesty and it feels like you’re talking with a friend who understands the struggles of wanting to fit in but also wanting to stay faithful to God’s truth. What I loved most was how she shared real stories from her own life and connected them to Scripture in a way that felt relatable and practical. It reminded me that being bold in my faith doesn’t mean being perfect but it means choosing obedience and courage even when it’s hard. This book pushed me to reflect on the areas of my life where I might be compromising and encouraged me to stand firm in who God made me to be. I finished it feeling inspired to live more confidently and unapologetically for Christ. If you’re looking for something that will challenge you, encourage you, and help you grow spiritually, this book is definitely worth reading.

This is a book that you want to read start to finish. Dare to be true will challenge you and make you really think about your relationship with Jesus, friends and family. Madi talks about a lot of real life experiences and makes each chapter feel personal. If you are someone that feels lost with your religion and need some answers on why you don’t feel close to god, dare to be true will really help you. Madi, thank you for speaking truth to the people.
An amazing read!

A read for Christian's new and old. To overcome the enemy we have to know the Truth. Knowing Gods word and applying it in real life can be confusing sometimes. This book really applies real life situations to the truth of the Bible. Not shying away from hard topics or controversial topics, but just sharing the truth. So helpful!!!
Bold and Honest!!! Loved this Book!!!

Dare to Be True by Madi is such an inspiring and refreshing read. What I loved most is the way Madi wove her personal stories throughout the book. Instead of just giving advice in theory, she shared real moments from her own life moments of faith, growth, and challenges which made the lessons feel so much more relatable and genuine. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for encouragement, motivation, or just a reminder to live boldly as yourself.
The Truth will set you free!

This book is something everyone needs to read. There are lies we hear in our lives l, sometimes without even recognizing there is no truth to them, that are keeping us from living in the light that the Lord has for us. We aren’t meant to fight these lies on our own and Madi does a beautiful job speaking to readers on how to combat these lies that hold us back from walking in our purpose. I dare you to read this book and see the Truth that will set you free.

Madi does a phenomenal job at sharing the True of God's word. Not only does she share scripture to help you understand the meaning of truth and how to Jesus is the way, truth and life -- she also connects real world stories and examples to help you grasp and understand what she is trying to teach. I've loved all of the books she has wrote so far, and cannot wait to finish this one!
