About Unafraid - Carey Scott

As women, we struggle to feel like we’re good enough because we are bombarded daily with messages that whisper, “Who you are is not okay.”

We live in a world that tells us we have to look a certain way, live a certain lifestyle, have husbands who fit a certain mold, and have children that excel in every area of their lives.

And rather than thrive in the life we have, we strive to create an existence that impresses others.

This impossible treadmill leaves us with deep discontentment and a joyless existence.

God doesn’t apologize for how He created us. And while we’re always being molded by our Creator, it’s only to shape us for the calling on our life—not so we can fit into a world we were never meant to:

“Do not allow this world to mold you in its own image. Instead, be transformed from the inside out by renewing your mind. As a result, you will be able to discern what God wills and whatever God finds good, pleasing, and complete. Love others well, and don’t hide behind a mask; love authentically.”
(Romans 12:2,9)

What if we had the confidence to shed our fears and be who God created us to be – stumbles, fumbles, and all – relishing who we are rather than conforming to the world? Using an acrostic for the word AUTHENTIC, author Carey Scott unpacks 9 ways we can find the confidence we need to shine with fearless authenticity:

Accept Your Awesomeness
Unearth the Untruths
Try Loving Everyone
Hold on to Hope
Extend Forgiveness
Never Shrink Back
Trample the Negatives
Invest in Community
Camp in the Word of God

Let’s link arms and commit to living authentic lives… together. Are you ready?

“Unafraid is for every person who craves an authentic life but is unsure of how to practically step into this space. I appreciate Carey’s honest awareness, insight, and biblical wisdom and closed the final page feeling free to live unafraid of who God made me to be. You will too. Plus Carey is hilarious, and authenticity and humor are pretty much the makings of a perfect read. #blessitall”

“Carey Scott is a woman who brings an honest, poignant, reality check to Christians battling a spirit of fear. I’ve watched Carey stare fear in the face in ministry, in business, and in relationships – yet walk away triumphant with her head held high and her faith intact. It takes grit and grace to live in this world, and Carey’s newest book, Unafraid, is the roadmap for women who want to live fearlessly, be authentic, and experience life to the fullest.”
