Customer Reviews

A very inspiring book

This was a very inspiring book. We need more like it. It takes the lives of five women who exemplified virtuous, upright living in their lives. In a world where these examples are few and hard to find, or at least where we are surrounded everywhere in books, movies, tv, etc, by examples of immodesty, loose morals, selfishness in all its many forms, this book fills a great need in helping us lift our standard higher. I wish it could somehow get into the hands of every young woman, and the rest of us as well. Thank you for all the research that went into creating such a valuable book.

A small book with a huge purpose

Valiant Young Women is a collection of stories of five incredible heroines who changed the world through their service to God and to mankind. Their stories changed my life and are bound to create a change in anyone who reads them. I am not an avid reader of inspirational or Christian literature because I have often found this kind of literature to be too condescending, frightening, or quite frankly boring. But these stories are anything but boring and Bryce D. Gibby has found a way to lead and inspire in a way that is powerful and exciting. We are moved to join these daughters of God to find our life's mission. This book teaches us to serve, to sacrifice, to strengthen our minds and our faith, and to find a purpose in life and live for it. I very highly recommend this book to everyone; man, woman, young or old, Christian or not, and when you find yourself wanting more, Valiant Young Men by the same author is just as awesome and valuable a read.

Excellent Book

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and could not put it down. The author leaves you feeling informed as well as uplifted on the accounts of these amazing young women's lives. I highly recommend this book to anyone male or female!
