Be Bold: Finding Your Fierce
About this ebook
From the “thin slice of life” where she grew up with her family in Appalachia to success as pastor of a large church, Rachel Billups’s life stories show strength and grace even in the midst of doubt and wondering. With her brand of fierce she worked through years of school to become an accomplished pastor and mother of four. She took nothing lying down and found that being bold was the only way to be alive. In Be Bold, she weaves her stories into the lives of biblical characters. You will find redemption and insight in Sarah’s story, inspiration in Mary’s call, and ministry and community in Paul’s letter to Timothy. For anyone who hopes to find the fierce in their own lives, Billups’s work leads the way. In both her personal experience and her telling of Bible stories, Billups shows how being bold can bring you closer to God and God’s plan for your life.

About the author
Rachel Billups believes the Gospel is more adventure than assignment, and she has spent her ministry trying to live it. As Senior Pastor of New Albany United Methodist Church in New Albany, Ohio, she is an ordained Elder, a sought-after voice at national gatherings, and a coach to pastors learning to lead brave. Her books An Unlikely Lent, An Unlikely Advent, and Be Bold: Finding Your Fierce invite readers into the margins of the biblical story, because that is usually where grace shows up with the good snacks. As co-founder of hub4innovation.org, she gathers church leaders helping to build the future of the Church. Rachel and her husband are raising four remarkable kids and trying (mostly successfully) to keep their dogs off the furniture. Find her at www.rachelbillups.com.
