Invisible - by Brenda Erb Roberts (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Feeling invisible is not a superpower.

Many women today feel unseen, overlooked, or shamed, but so did women in the Bible-who knew?

One felt abandoned by God, so the harebrained idea of making God's plan happen without God's help somehow morphed into a brilliant idea in her mind. What did she do, and how did God respond? The answer might surprise you.

A childless woman lived a life reminiscent of Cinderella's and endured the worst family "vacation" every year. Did God see her, and if so, how did he help?

Discover how each woman in this book felt invisible but became a Beloved Daughter of God-no qualifications as a paragon of virtue required.

Do you feel invisible and long for someone to see you? Journey with these women and learn more about "the God who sees me." (Genesis 16:13, NIV).

Questions for group discussion or personal reflection are included.

"Brenda Erb Roberts nailed it. Invisible: God's Loving Pursuit of His Unseen Daughters is a book that you will not be able to put down.

With thought, imagination, and emotion, Brenda, takes her readers on a journey through the Bible to encounter the stories of 13 women. Using humor and fresh, relatable examples, Brenda reminds us that feelings of invisibility are common and were experienced both in biblical times and today. Yet God's creative plan directs the narrative of our lives to showcase His love for His unseen daughters no matter what era they live in, or what circumstances they find themselves in.

You will laugh. You will cry. You will deeply reflect on the wonder of God and His amazing workings on behalf of His chosen daughters. This book belongs in your hands."--Margaret Gibb, Founder and Executive Director, Women Together

"Many women have felt this way at one time or another...felt being the key word. Yes, feelings have a way of usurping what's true. How we feel or how we are made to feel due to our circumstances can pull us into a pit of despair.

Brenda Erb Roberts has beautifully scripted the stories of thirteen kindred hearts that felt invisible, that were rescued by their creator and persuaded that not only were they seen, but intimately known, and fiercely loved.

You will be drawn into their pain, their frustration, their desperation, their aloneness, and fear.

You will see yourself, and ultimately, you will see your God and like your thirteen sisters be completely overwhelmed by the truth that you are indeed, a Beloved Daughter."--Sue Keddy, President, Dream Big With Us

"Invisible: God's Loving Pursuit of His Unseen Daughters by Brenda Erb Roberts is designed to help women see themselves as God sees them - as dearly beloved daughters. It unpacks the relatable stories of women who found, down through the ages, in the middle of their difficulties, that God was faithful. Each of us has baggage; this book helps us to understand that God can use those things that the enemy intended for our destruction and make them work for our good and His glory. Allow this book to speak hope to your heart."--Tony denBok, Lead Pastor, Clearview Community Church

"Brenda Erb Roberts has put together an inspirational book using several women in the Bible as examples to us. It is wonderful how she shares her own heart on feeling invisible at times in her life while expounding on the blessings and love of God despite our inadequacies."--Denise Mountenay, Author of The Bride, The Serpent & The Seed, Speaker/Filmmaker, Together for Life Ministries
