Known for her strength, passion, and mama-bear mentality, influential speaker and New York Times bestselling author Lisa Bevere started her ministry 30 years ago, feeling lost and alone. While she never had the benefit of learning from a mentor, she has lived her life becoming the mentor she always wanted and is now determined to rally other women so that future generations may grow in their wisdom, strength, and love.

In her new book, Godmothers: Why You Need One. How to Be One.\\xa0 Lisa offers women a catalytic, transformative vision for women to live in a way that embraces the godmother\\u2014the older, wiser woman who will partner with a younger woman to help navigate life\\u2019s ups and downs.

\\u201cFor three decades now, I\\u2019ve ministered to women,\\u201d writes Bevere. \\u201cIt matters not whether I am in America, Egypt, Iraq, or Europe, women are hungry for more. They realize there is an aching need for deeper multigenerational connections. Both the young and the not-so-young mourn the gap but don\\u2019t always know viable ways to bridge or fill it.\\u201d

Called to minister to women, Bevere more easily related to the boys and wasn\\u2019t sure where to start. After asking God for a mentor for eight years, she heard him say \\u201cThere will be no mentor for you.\\u201d Though disappointed, she knew what she was being called to do\\u2014to become the woman she so desperately longed for and to fill the gap for others.

\\u201cFor far too many spiritual mothers and daughters, there is a yawning gap that has left both ends of the age spectrum at risk... You were not made to fill all these gaps yourself. You were made for a relationship with a godmother: a woman who worships the one true God and positions others both spiritually and practically to navigate their crucial and catastrophic seasons in life.\\u201d

Her most personal and powerful book yet, Godmothers draws from Bevere\\u2019s own life, biblical women, and the world of fairy tales to show women how to transform what they have to discover the fullness of who God created them to be. Readers will be challenged to live their best lives as daughters of God, by surrounding themselves with strong relationships and being confident in their callings.
