If you’ve ever struggled with knowing and doing God’s will, “Say Yes to God” — formerly titled “Dangerous Surrender” — is for you. Kay Warren challenges you to surrender to God’s plan for your life. Giving in to God isn’t easy. It’s the boldest, riskiest step you’ll ever take, but it will bring you closer to him than you ever thought possible.
You have a plan for the rest of your life. God has a plan for the rest of your life. Are they the same? Say Yes to God—formerly titled Dangerous Surrender—will help you find the answer.
Kay Warren had a plan. Together with her husband, Rick Warren, author of the bestseller “The Purpose Driven Life,” she planned that after her kids were grown, she’d travel the world, teaching and encouraging couples in ministry. It was a good plan. But it wasn’t what God had in mind for her.
In her own startling wake-up call, Kay discovered the shocking realities of the AIDS pandemic in Africa while reading a magazine and heard God asking her to do something about it. That began the struggle—first to avoid God’s call and then to surrender herself to God.
If you’ve ever struggled with knowing and doing God’s will, this book is for you. With raw honesty, Kay goes straight to the heart of the matter: the bottom line is surrender. Will you say yes to God.
Along the way she’ll introduce you to others—people like you—who have said yes to God and have made a difference in the world. Using their skills, energy, faith, and a willingness to take risks, they became powerful instruments of change and tools in God’s hands.
Giving in to God isn’t easy. It’s not for cowards. It’s the boldest, riskiest step you’ll ever take. This dangerous surrender can bring both joy and pain, both heartache and ecstasy, but it enables you to know God in a far deeper way than ever before.
Kay Warren took that step, choosing to say yes to God. That decision transformed her life and reshaped her future. She invites you to do the same.
