“I first heard about Elyse Fitzpatrick when I picked up Comforts from the Cross, and was—right or wrong—refreshingly surprised that a devotional written by a woman could be so stinkin' good. Ever since, J.D. and I have been fan–club members for all things Fitzpatrick. She majors on grace in real and practical ways. Any woman who has ever thought, I get that the gospel is the center; but what do I do with my screaming child, my screaming conscience, or this screaming voice of anxiety? needs to pick up Good News for Weary Women. Elyse celebrates legitimately good news for women drowning in a sea of bad advice.”

“I feel like Elyse Fitzpatrick has been mentoring me and discipling me for years through her books. You can find her words stacked on my nightstand and residing in the basket on my coffee table, and there are extra copies in tote bags, just waiting to be given to women I disciple myself. This book, however, is one that needs to be read by every single gal I know. It's a loving and hope–filled coffee date for my entire generation. It's the words we're longing to hear, which I believe we can receive only from women like Elyse—women whose eyes are on Jesus and who are still running the race well in front of us.”

“When you pick up a book written by Elyse Fitzpatrick, you know you're going to hear good news. And who doesn't need to hear good news? Weary women don't have time to waste on fake hope. Every woman needs to look away from herself and to the Man who is seated in heaven at the right hand of the Father. Every page in Good News for Weary Women is laden with the burden–lifting news that Christ is our sufficient strength.”

“The church should be the one institution in all of society that announces rest for the weary and heavy laden, but all too often what broken and burned–out people get instead is a to–do list. My friend Elyse (actually, more like my older, wiser sister) has written a book for all the women whose souls are burdened by the unending pressure to be the perfect woman. If you're in need of good news that relieves and liberates, please read this. And thank you, Elyse, for reminding me once again that “it is finished.”...I keep forgetting.”
