Review Quotes

"There is so much depth in each chapter, packed full of truths that had me nodding my head in agreement, wiping tears of gratitude away, and making me stop and praise my Creator. I read -- no, STUDIED, my way through this book at the most perfect time in my life, when I was being pounded by insecurities and fears about the next chapter that is looming ahead in my life. By the end of the first chapter, I was already back to remembering WHOSE I am, and that HE will complete that which He said He would do. The format of the book is unique and refreshing. Courtney is our guide through the different characteristics and qualities of God, and ourselves as humans. The examples she shares from her own life are endearing, and help to create a sense of intimacy -- we are not going through this alone. I had a very real sense that she was cheering me along as I read and studied and began to change. I want to buy this book for so many of my friends! It would be amazing to use as a group study!" -meredith713

"This Bible study really is a spiritual journey. I have never seen a format like this one. Most studies include a chapter of teaching with a study at the end. Courtney pulls you into the conversation in each chapter with open references to scripture. It really is impossible to read this study without your Bible open next to you. That is what I love most! She guides you and yet, with such humility, steps back and allows God to teach you through His Word. You can sense her heart and passion for you to grow in who God designed you to be and through her format, you will be engaged with every page. I've often found myself taking a few days to complete one chapter, simply because of all of the searching of scripture that I'm doing. I don't mind, because there is so much to digest. You will be blessed!" -S. Hoover

"In Refining Identity Courtney Cohen takes us on a journey toward understanding truth about who God is and who He says that we are. She shares her own personal experiences and revelations as God taught her these things in her own life. She takes us through the process that gold goes through, as it is refined, to share how our identity is refined as we seek God and become more like Him. It is such an easy read full of scripture to study which will leave you not just learning the author's story but knowing God's heart for you." -Kristin L.

"I love the subtitle of Refining Identity: "I am who I AM says I am." As Christians, we are not who our friends say we are, or our circumstances - we are His and He defines us. One of my favorite quotes from the book is "We were never intended to reach our potential through our own strengths. At some point, if we truly desire to be the people God has created us to be, we have to be willing to hand over the controls, rip up or blueprints and allow Him to re-sketch our identities." -joyfulmama

"At some point, we all struggle with the question, who am I? Far too often, it's easy to let other people and society dictate who we are. Courtney's book reminds us of our true identity and the source of that identity. She shares many truths, scriptures and personal stories to help us overcome the lies that may fill our head. You'll end the book feeling more confident than ever. This isn't a book you'll want to rush through. The discussion questions make the book perfect for self-study or even book clubs." -Kacey

"Refining Identity is one of those books that you will not want to put down. Well written with beautiful insight and wise counsel it is a life changing blessing to read. The book is a personal journey to discover who you are in the eyes of GOD and to establish a deeper understanding and relationship with Him."
