Naked and unafraid [audio-enabled device] 5 keys to abandon smallness, overcome criticism, and be all you are meant to be / by Gerald, Kevin,author(CARDINAL)482687; Findaway World, LLC.(CARDINAL)345268; Hachette Audio (Firm).(CARDINAL)346394; Listening Library.(CARDINAL)715495; Playaway Digital Audio.(CARDINAL)565887;
Read by the author."NAKED AND UNAFRAID breaks down the five keys to overcoming fear of criticism to live our best life: risking exposure, abandoning smallness, pushing past criticism, owning our story, and fighting for our future. Through the Bible s tory of K ing David dancing naked in the streets while his critical wife watches safely from a window, this audiobook provides a visual contrast of two approaches to living: David's vulnerable "street logic" and his wife's guarded, fearful "window logic." It also highlights the inspiring breakthroughs of cultural heroes who were bold enough to take risks -- transforming their lives and impacting the world. Our greatest fulfillment isn't found in the window; it's found in the street. Everything -- our relationships, our work, our emotional and spiritual health -- gets better when we're open and vulnerable. Vulnerability is risky and exposure is scary, but with God's help we can embrace it to become who we are meant to be."--Issued on Playaway, a dedicated audio media player.
