When God looks at you, He doesn’t measure the size of your hips or the size of your house, He measures the size of His love for you – and it is immeasurable!!

I pray that you…grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the Love of Christ {for you}. Eph 3:17 & 18

  2. I too bought your book a while ago, but haven’t read it. I came across it the other day & put it on my nightstand. Now this opportunity came along. I think I’m supposed to be reading this! Thank you for allowing God to work through you to reach so many hearts for Him. Can’t wait to get started!

  3. Hi Renee, I signed up for your online study yesterday. This will be my first 🙂 I’m super excited to see what God has in store.

  11. I am so excited for this Bible study! I haven’t been a part of a group in a few years because of scheduling conflicts, so this online study is very exciting for me. Thank you so much for offering it and God Bless you for touching all of our lives!

  12. Hi Renee,
    I have had your book for a few months and started it, but didn’t finish for some reason. I know the truths in it are necessary for my freedom and confidence in Christ. My time is limited, so I would appreciate the prayers that I will CHOOSE to take the time to study and participate.

    Thanks for doing this study and encouraging us in the Lord.

  13. This study is so needed for me at this time. Very thankful to be able to participate. Thank you for your book , it has been a blessing and I hope it will bless my daughter as she reads it next. We are both signed up for your conference in Tallahassee next month too!Blessings

  14. Looking forward to having you lead this study Renee. Your book has been life changing for me and gave me the confidence to forgive and also choose to let God peel back a “scab” of life to let God start healing from the inside out. I’m praying for you in the leadership of this study as I know Satan will be on the prowl. Blessings to you and all the women who are taking the step and choosing to do this study.

  15. I’m looking forward to this study. I’m excited to see what God has instore for us.

  16. I am so glad to join your Bible Study! This is just perfect timing. There are new challenges and opportunities right now and on the horizon for me. I need the confidence to embrace and pursue them! I don’t want to miss out on everything that God has for me by not having the confidence to go for it all. I am excited about all that God has in store for us through this time together! Love and blessings, Pamela

  18. I bought your book when it first came out, I read it and gave it to several friends to real also. I am looking forward to doing this study as I feel the doubts and insecurities again creeping in my life. I have a lot of pressure right now in many areas and feel that I am not strong enough or equipped enough to handle it all. And yes I know that is the devil working on me! Thank you so much for writing this book and sharing it with all of us!

  19. I’m very excited for this study! Thanks so much for this study and for all your writings. They’ve helped me and I know will continue to.

  21. I felt strongly led to get the book for my Mom & Sis as well as myself. We are all signed up for this study now and I am excited about starting the study. God has been “growing me” in the past few months and recently I had prayed that God show me my barriers to having a deeper relationship with Him. I had seen your book before and had put it on my book wishlist. Then I received the post about the upcoming study & believe this was God’s answer to my prayer. I can ahrdly wait to see where God takes me with this study! Thank you for making this study so available to so many!

  22. This study is perfect timing in my life right now. I love how God does that! I’m really looking forward to the book and the study. It’s time to live in truth and victory instead of falling for lies!! Grace and peace to everyone.

  23. Im having a lot of self doubts, that maybe the the things happening in my life right now is because I have to change MY attitude, and stop blaming everyone else.

  24. Hello I signed up for the study today and would love for you to pray for me and I will begin to pray for you as well.

  25. Hi Renee, I had a dear friend recommend your book to me and haven’t been the same since! I have a completely different outlook on God, love, life and happiness! You and your book have become an inspiration to me and I continually reference my key take aways from His word in scripture and His word through you in your book. I’m really looking forward to reading this book again and learning even more about Christ and myself through Him, you and other readers.

    Thank-you so much for having the courage to write this book and also in having faith in its success. I am forever changed for the better and have been passing it along to friends whom I think may benefit from it as well.

    God Bless!
    Alisha

  26. I have signed up for my third go round. I desperately need your prayers that I get time and energy to stay with it this time. I need this badly…I will be praying for others.

  27. Renee,

    I am so excited I just signed up for the Confident Heart Online Bible Study!!! I purchased the book over a year ago, and started reading it; however, for whatever reason I stoppd. BUT, God is so amazing that over the last day and a half your book, or e-mails about the 7-day doubt diet, quotes from the book, and now this study are everywhere I turn. I truly believe that God is say, “Peggy, YOU need to get back to this book and complete the study”. I have started believing those horrible false truths and lies from the evil one. I fee like God is getting ready to set me free from all the self-doubts and people pleasing traits that I have fallen victim to.

    I cannot wait until April!

    Peggy

  29. I signed up, Renee. I am so looking forward to this! I read A Confident Heart a few months ago and I felt like you could see into my heart. Word for word, I could relate to everything you wrote. Your book really helped me see life with a new perspective.

    Lately I’ve been so tired and discouraged – life is so crazy. I have four young children, homeschool, and some days feel endless. I know the Lord is there but I have to stop and listen to His voice in the midst of the craziness.

    I was just thinking that I need to pick up A Confident Heart again when I saw your email this morning. Perfect timing! I’d so appreciate your prayers, Renee. Thank you. I can’t wait to do this study with you!

  30. Yes I signed up and I’m super excited for the study… Please help me pray for myself today… I’ve got a chest cold and I’m not feeling good at all….:(. Thanks.

  34. Hi Renee, I have watched your videos on you tube and I am looking forward to doing this book study. This is the perfect study for me as I finish Suzanne’s Eller’s “unburdened Heart” study.

  35. I’ve joined the study group and the book is on the way to my mailbox. I look forward to studying The Word with you all. I need a more “Confident Heart.”

  37. Good Morning

    I am looking forward to the study of Confident Heart. I hope that this 66 year old woman still has time to learn something for her life to be used for the Lord. Thank you for your time and study.

  38. Hello Renee,

    I don’t have ‘Confident Heart’ book but I am looking forward to participate in online study. I have registered on it.

    I really need a confident heart to do God’s work with boldness. Please pray for me. Hellelujah

  39. I am one of those you emailed by mistake. Maybe it was not a mistake but a prodding by God. I feel my life is out of control and, especially in the eating and weight area. I really need to know God loves me and is there with me to release this burden in my life. Thank you for your mistake. I am looking forward to completing the study this time!

  40. Your bible study couldn’t have come at a better time. Thank you so much, I’m really looking forward to it.

  41. Hi Renee please pray for me. I just started a new business venture and I sense God is calling me to do a lot of things I’ve never done before and I don’t know how to get started. I am also graduating from undergrad on May 17th and I don’t really have a solid plan. I need clarity and direction. Thank you in advance!

  42. Hi Renee,

    I am so looking-forward to this study in April. I am struggling with issues of beauty, eating disorders, and worth. Thanks for the prayers and praying myself for the Holy Spirit to do a might work to change me forever.

  43. Renee, our LILIES Bible study group has been studying your book for our spring semester; we are currently on Chapter 9. Thank you for helping us learn to be more confident in God’s love for us so that we can love ourselves and others the way God loves us.

  44. Thank you for taking the time to share this study! I have signed up before and didn’t finish. I know that I will finish this time as I need to be more confidence in myself and The Lord! Thank you!

  45. Hi Renee,
    Please pray for me too. I have also had your book for a while and I have found this to be a perfect opportunity to read it. Looking forward to the Bible Study. Thank you.

    • I am praying for each of you tonight including you Susana that Jesus will meet you right where you are and draw your heart into a place that feels so close to Him you just won’t be able to get enough of what you read in the book and study in His word. He’s crazy about you and Im so glad you are going the study with us!!

  46. Hi Renee,

    I have joined your bible study because I do have such self doubt in my life and have never been assured of God’s love for me. Please pray for me.

    • Hi sweet Martha – so glad you have joined the study. Im praying that God would prepare your heart in these coming weeks to know and believe with all your mind, soul, heart and strength that you are LOVED and He’s got a purpose for your life – right where you are!!

    • Oh Gertrude – thank YOU for taking time to leave a note and encourage me. The enemy has been on a warpath with lots of attacks in different ways and it means the world to know that God’s love prevails and that the little I offer makes a difference. He’s so good!

    • Im praying for you Gloria…

      Lord Jesus, you know Gloria’s needs, her fears, her concerns, her doubts, her dreams. Will your wrap your tender mercies around her thoughts today and whisper sweet notes of encouragement to her heart! In Your Name I pray, amen!

  49. Hello…I’m estatic about this study starting!!! I’ve had the book for awhile now and this is the perfect opportunity to read it! Thank you!

    • Hello Sharon! So fun to have you sign up and hear how excited you are. It’s great to meet you. Can’t wait to see you hear each week 🙂

  50. Looking forward to studying this again! Thank you for taking the time to share with us.
