Five years ago, I was on the launch team for Jen Hatmaker's
For the Love. I'm not exaggerating when I say that the book changed my life. (See my review
here.) In the time since she wrote
For the Love, Hatmaker went through a very public (and very painful) shift in some of her beliefs, which moved her out of the conservative Evangelical sphere where I still reside. I think it's very healthy to hear from voices different from our own, so I was eager to read
Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire—knowing that I wouldn't agree with 100% of Hatmaker's words but hoping to understand a different perspective and find myself challenged.
