Empowered Women is a devotional dedicated to the memory of Michal Ann Goll and to the honor of all believers in Christ who are passionate about helping others. It is a compilation of the best from three of her books in the Women on the Front Lines series: A Call to Courage; A Call to the Secret Place; Compassion: A Call to Take Action.
This inspiring and challenging devotional serves as a motivation for all who want to follow Michal Anns example of prayer, the presence of God, and impacting others through a faith that fights for the rights of the disenfranchised worldwide.
You will enjoy not only the insights but the depth of compassion found within Empowered Women. You will be lifted above the daily grind into a realm of spiritual, mental, and emotional peace and comfort where you can allow God to immerse you with His love and grace.
Michal Anns extravagant and contagious love for others is manifested in this devotional and exemplified through the examples she chose to write about including Fanny Crosby, Florence Nightingale, Mother Teresa, Joan of Arc, Madame Jeanne Guyon, and Catherine Booth.
It has been my goal and desire to love the Lord with all my heart all the days of my life. My desire is to leave with my family, friends and ministry partners a challenge to always love and honor God with all your life. I request that you not forget the poor that Jesus died for, and that you carry on my ministry of Compassion Acts to the world. Michal Ann Goll, February 4, 2008
