Favourite quote: “When women pray, God brings about new life”💕✨🪷. This quote perfectly encapsulates the essence of the book and the profound impact of women's prayers.
One of the most impactful takeaways for me was the idea that “prayer is a team sport. You need a congregation of people to pray with.” This made me reflect on the people in my life and whether I could lean on them. It became clear that I needed to call in my congregation🫶🏾🙏🏾✨🌱☁️🤍—those who would stand with me in prayer, especially during challenging times when my own vision might falter🤍.
