Who would imagine being friends with Eve—the woman who’s been held responsible for the fall of humanity (and cramps) for thousands of years? Certainly not Sarah Jakes Roberts. That is, not until Sarah discovered she is more like Eve than she cares to admit.
Everyone faces trials, and everyone will mess up. But failure should not be the focus. Your focus should not be on who you were but rather the pursuit of who you can become. In Woman Evolve, Sarah helps you understand that your purpose in life does not change; it evolves.
Making her mistake in the Garden of Eden, Eve became the first woman to deal with rebuilding her life in the aftermath of her past. Eve knew better, but she didn’t do better. With scriptural lessons, Eve as the framework, and Sarah as your guide you will discover and work through:
Past issues and insecurities that haunt you
Seeing yourself as God sees you and trusting Him with who you really are
How to come out of darkness and pursue a real relationship with God
Why it’s important to truly care for yourself
Setting in motion the beautiful seed that God planted in you
Your fears and insecurities may have changed how you viewed God, others, and yourself, but in Woman Evolve, you can break through and use past mistakes to revolutionize your life. Like Eve, you don’t have to live your future defined by your past.

I was inspired to continue actioning my God given purpose in life. I have projects that the Lord has entrusted me with and I felt encouraged to action them. It reminded me that I matter to God and whatever I have gone through in life is not for waste. I need to continuously ask God how He wants to use my perceived mess and turn it to a message.
In a paragraph, what is the main point of the book:
The author is looking at the life of Eve , the first woman to be created by God. She points out that we all have an EVE (imperfect character) in us as women. We should know however that Genesis 3:15 has released us not to be apologetic about our visions, dreams, goals and purpose in life. We are called to birth seed , plant it, water it and harvest the fruit of it. Yes, along the way the enemy will try and steal the seed but our role is not to give up. God has given us a second chance to evolve and be who he has created us to be. We need to find healing, bring all the insecurities, fears and worries to God and allow Him to touch and highlight things we need to deal with. Through the healing process, we will find strategies and divine ways of implementing our God given dream. We are called to EVOLVE.
Who would benefit from reading this book:
Every woman, young and old.
