About this ebook

Have you wandered from the life you want to live? Chrystal Evans Hurst shares raw and vulnerable stories from her own life to let you know how you too can find your way back after a few missteps. Over 100,000 copies sold!

What happens when a woman looks at herself in the mirror, lingering just a little longer than usual and realizes that she no longer recognizes the person staring back at her? What does she do when she sees that, somehow, her life has drifted away from all her original hopes, dreams, or plans?

Speaker, blogger, and writer Chrystal Evans Hurst wrote this book because she was that woman. One day she realized that she had somehow wandered from the life she was meant to live.

Chrystal since discovered that this moment of awareness happens to lots of women at different seasons of their lives. Poor decisions, a lack of intentionality or planning, or a long-term denial of deep hopes and dreams can leave a woman, old or young, reeling from the realization that she is lost, disappointed, or simply numb.

And she just needs encouragement.

This woman simply needs someone to hold her hand, cheer her on, and believe with her that she is still capable of being the person she intended to be.

Chrystal uses her poignant story of an early and unexpected pregnancy, as well as other raw and vulnerable moments in her life, to let readers know she understands what it's like to try and find your way after some missteps or decisions you didn't plan on. In She's Still There Chrystal emphasizes the importance of the personal process and the beauty of authentically sharing your journey one girlfriend to another. It’s a book of "me toos," reminders of the hoped for, and challenges for the path ahead--to find direction, purpose, and true satisfaction.

Also available: She's Still There DVD series and study guide.

Be prepared to laugh, to cry, and to be forever changed! Being a homeschool mom and wife with all of the challenges it brings has often left me wondering "is this all there is?" It's so easy to let yourself get pushed to the wayside as you look after family and friends, but when you do, you miss out on giving the gift of you. You are a gift - and Chrystal reminds you of that quite often in her book. Emotions aren't dictators, circumstances don't define you - you can be all God created you to be with just a little (or in my case, a WHOLE LOT) of discipline. Chrystal has broken all the chapters into bite-sized pieces with reflection questions at the end of each chapter along with a summary sentence and supporting Scripture. This book is written as though you and Chrystal are sitting across the table from one another sharing your life stories. She encourages you and gives you practical steps to move you in the direction you need to go, because that girl inside you - the one who dreams big and has aspirations for her future - she's still there! (As an aside, I recommend lots of tissues 😉 )

This book took me a while to read because the author's words are really thought provoking and I needed time to process the each point. This is a book that I could re-read and get something new from it each time.
