Overview

What do Joan of Arc, Immaculée Ilibagiza, Corrie ten Boom, and Sojourner Truth have in common?

These women are among those whom best-selling author Marcy Heidish calls Defiant Daughters. This informative, challenging, and entertaining book spotlights the lives of more than 20 spiritual trailblazers and their responses to crises of conscience. They represent different races, denominations, and nations, but all are feisty—often fiery—and always faithful to their callings. What motivated these "defiant daughters," who gave their all for God? Heidish seeks out the decisive juncture where they took a stand for conscience, regardless of the consequences. This stunning and compelling book will bring you face-to-face with an unforgettable female gallery of "profiles in courage."
