This book was amazing! Very motivational. This book has helped me to continue to push & never just settle. I have ways had the mentality of refusing to just “settle” for anything in my life. This book has confirmed it for me. I will never settle. I will always push to be a better me & strive to be the woman that God has for me to be.

Very uplifting book

This book was beyond insightful, it descriptively portrayed so many false ideas I too have experienced, and shed a new light. This book for me was unleashing truths I have tried to ignore to revealing gifts I also ignored. This book restored my hope and gave me encouragement. I wish it were in Sarah’s voice similar to that of Lost and Found.

The author has a clear focus on getting you to dig deep and ask yourself the gut punching questions regarding your life, relationships, and experiences in your life that brought you to your lowest point. I felt like every part of my life she touched on; I have highlighted so many parts of this book that I plan to use for my own life’s work. I particularly like how she takes the time to share her own story and give advice that may help others throughout each chapter. Read it. I may even buy it as a gift for one of my friends!

This book was life changing- I suggest this especially to younger women who battle with finding their purpose- dealing with past hurts. This book was my first book that i read for the year of 2018 and im so glad that I did, it helped me to jump start my new year off right. It was inspirational, it was educational , she touched on so many things that us as women – human beings face on the day to day basis. If I could give her 10 stars I would have because this book was that good. Im going to read her husbands book next “wholeness”

I was in a very low place when I purchased this book, alone & recently separated from my husband because of my destructive behaviors, I wanted better for my life. This book gave me so much confidence. I felt like I was having intimate conversations with a close girlfriend or sister, telling me “girl, you can be better! You are too comfortable in your bad behavior and it’s gotten you no where!” I needed this book. It encouraged me to move past my fear and those “comfortable” negative behaviors that served me no good! With God and the words in this book, I am encouraged; I am better; I am changed!

I’m grateful that Sarah Jakes Roberts was obedient and let God use her to impact the lives of all who make the choice to read Don’t settle for Safe and change their lives. I recently exited a relationship and by reading this book I found the confirmation I needed to continue to seek God first, let the past go and grow into the woman God designed me to be.
Vivian Bell –
The realization that we never arrive at perfection, yet continue to evolve into who God created us to be and that all of our broken moments are a part of that purpose is a gift this book has given me that no price could be set for. I needed this book, her story in black and white to encourage me to continue to find beauty in my own. Thank you SJR.

Kim –
This book met me at the perfect moment. I MUST meet Sarah, and as I’m sure millions have also said, this book and her sermons have been a blessing. This book though, I didn’t search for it. The internet did that thing where it decided for me. I kept passing it by and searching for some good romance or not so healthy reads, but God knew the place I was in, the mission that I was on, and wouldn’t let me rest until I began reading. 1st 3 chapter I cried every page. I felt seen. The entire book. The prayers. All of it that now I must have the hard copy as well. If Sarah Sees this… thank you for being obedient and using your purpose and gifts with us.

One of the greatest read. I cried in almost every chapter I had to stop digest, regress in order to move forward to progress in my new place of peace, learning and unlearning. Processing differently a renewed mind. This book opened up some stuff, killed some stuff, confirmed some stuff man this is Holy Ghost help book. #nomoreselfhelp #ihadagoodpurge. I wanted to finish this book quickly but I couldn’t it requires me to take my times plus the things that it revealed about me I needed time to process. I felt as if I could write my own book for each chapter. AWESOME
Sonya S. –
As usual, my writing mentor has written another life changing book. This one took me a little more time to complete because I didn’t want to rush it. But EVERY TIME I picked it up, it was exactly what I needed at that moment! No matter what you are going through, when you read her books, it’s right on time! I appreciate every lesson she learned, so that she could share it with others. She truly has a gift!!

Sarah speaks for those of us who cant articulate the right words needed to comprehend our spiritual path! She speaks into existence the power of words and paints a picture clear enough to see the truth in it!

Too many times I stopped and cried when reading this book, which pushes you to search your soul. I’ve made mistakes and still feel broken but I’m healing. This book let me mourn the life that I won’t have and open up for the one that’s waiting for me.

This book can be life-changing for many. It has really helped assist me with confirmation and my emotional healing journey. Mentally and spiritually helped me. Even if you’re not a Christian, you can get a lot from this. Just know what to eat and what to throw away. This book is definitely worth it. I look forward to reading it again. I’m almost done with it.I read it out of order LOL. I wish the audiobook was in her voice. This young lady is wise beyond her yearsI’ve been listening to her father for over two decades who is also powerful Bishop TD Jakes. I thank God for both of them. I can relate to a lot of Sarah’s testimony like a teen Mom, divorce etc. Although she’s younger than me she’s teaching me. Thanks Sarah for being so transparent open and vulnerable. You’re an inspiration. I’m so proud of you. This is one of my new favorite books.
Santini –
Firstly, I love the One Church Family lead by Pastor Toure Roberts & Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts. This book speaks to that part of you that has given in, that has settled, that doesn’t feel like you have anything to give. This book speaks life into your dry bones. It is encouraging, inspiring, and a book filled with hope, with purpose & with destiny all for the glory of God. Sarah teaches us to be confidant, to be bold and to keep building The Kingdom. Sarah’s vulnerability in sharing her own journey through pain to purpose will ignite the desire in you to be unstoppable and pursue your own purpose and destiny in Christ. Glorious!
Traysono –
I loved her vulnerability with her audience and the way she connected with her readers. I learned so much from this book.
Leslie Ann Stewart –
Sarah Jakes Roberts has once again provided a wonderful challenge for us all. She encourages BOTH MEN AND WOMEN to not only let go and let God do His work in our lives, but to embrace and enjoy the JOURNEY. She has done just that as she continues to share the elements of her life that so many of us can relate to in one way or another. -Virtue Within.
Vivian –
Good reading, very inspirational.
DarLisa L. Meaders –
Thank you for writing such a beautifully transparent tool that encouraged me to “Don’t Settle for Safe”. My busy schedule contributed to me taking almost 2 months to read the book. But it seemed as if God knew when I would need each chapter. I pray that He continues to bless you and your ministry. As I embrace the uncomfortable to become unstoppable I am equipped with new strategies and insight on this journey. I have made a decision to that “I won’t go back to safe” because I’ve settled before. I look forward to reading your next book these past two were awesome. God Bless!

This book has gave me some much new insight. I have learned so much in it and a lot of thing now make since. I am so excited about my journey.

For me this book served as a reminder that I need to pay attention to my subconscious, the decisions that I make and the feelings that I have because they have all shaped me into who I am. I never really think about my past and this book has me reliving some of my past experiences. I’m more area of myself if that makes sense. Moving forward I’m trying to be a better version of myself which does require me to be uncomfortable. Good read!
Ms.SunShineBaby –
Definitely a book that u will find yourself rereading again, it touched every part of my soul that i refused to acknowledge
Stephanie MoralesStephanie Morales –
Truly sooo beautiful! I finished reading Don’t settle for safe last night. May i say it has stretched me in my uncomfortableness, showing me areas in my life, heart and around me that needed to change and heal. Took me to self reflect the entire book becoming more self aware of my past traumas, current/past hurts, patterns and habits I must be consistent in choosing better for my new walk in becoming the better version of myself with God. Truly recommend!
Roxanne Wilkening –
This was a book club pick. I didn’t think I would like it, however each chapter revealed things that spoke to my spirit. If you want to be challenged in your journey it’s a must read.

I truly enjoyed every page. This was the perfect season for me to stumble on this gem. The knowledge share will forever impact my life.
Jonathan Thompson –
Don’t Settle for Safe must be a good book. I work with many homeless young ladies and bought copies for our centers. They keep walking off. Our female staff are reading the book as well. We have bought over seven copies. Some young ladies have connected with her ministry and shared their testimony with Sarah. I’ve heard her preach and her testimony, both of which are extremely powerful. From what I know of Sarah, her book is packed with a powerful message delivered with raw honesty, authentic humor, and transformational wisdom.
MARSHAUN OLANIYAN –
Don’t Settle for Safe is just what me and my girls needed. We get together to discuss this book biweekly and the discussions go so deep that after 1.5 hours we’ve only spoken about 2-4 concepts from this book!Very impactful. It’ll have you thinking differently, singing your own praises and feeling less a lone. Sarah’s story is very relatable and I love her writing style.No need to settle! At. All.
Marsha –
I am in the midst of facing a life-changing crisis at the moment, one that is causing me to break and expose the vulnerabilities that I have tried to keep hidden for so long. Now I have no choice but to be broken for a time. As I am experiencing this moment, I saw Sarah Jakes speaking on a tv show. I looked her up and found this gem of a book. Through reading this book I have realized that I am right where I’m supposed to be. It is unreal how much this book spoke to my situation. Thank you, Sarah, for letting God work through you.

Excellent excellent book. I cannot put the book down. I would recommend this book to married, divorce, never been married, and single women. The book touched so many aspects and so many journeys a women embarks upon. Ages 30 and above. Wow. So proud of this young writer. I’m an older woman with life experiences and I found this book thought provoking.

I believe that this book will make a lot of women young and season forgive themselves. We make mistakes in life. But we don’t forgive ourselves nor do we think that we can get back up from our mistakes and past. But God…. He forgave us long ago. We have to be willing to love ourselves and give ourselves a chance to regroup and examine ourselves. Before we can understand God loves us no matter what! I rate this book base on the truth about who Sarah is and she put it all out there. Letting us know that we all go through the same situation no matter who you are and where we come from.Shout out to a true woman of God,

I could relate with so many of the emotions you had and experiences of being self conscious about how people viewed you.

I bought this book after discovering this beautiful woman of God by happenstance.Let me start by saying l am a Christian woman who prays everyday. But l am human and as we all do, l get caught up in the world of stress and anxiety and overwhelm. I was drowning and when l found myself asking my friends to pray for me because l felt disconnected from God, I found Sarah by His Grace as l was struggling to keep my heart and head above some pretty heavy storms. I came across one of her sermons on YouTube when l was searching for something…anything to help me find direction or even a moment of peace. I just didn’t know what that something was until l found myself captivated by her message. My heart opened up and l could hear the voice and guidance of my God again! I sought out more of her sermons and made them a part of every day and she helped me find my courage and strength again. She helped me find my shine and my soul and more importantly, helped me find my way back to my Savior l was desperately missing and needing because l was blinded and deaf due to fear and uncertainty. I was alive but l wasn’t living until my heart opened up again and l thank Sarah for her compassion and profound messages!I was gifted with a KJV bible many years ago written by her dad, Bishop TD Jakes -Woman Thou are Loosed and l love it! Between the two of them, their sermons and testimonies and the powerful way they deliver the word of God…l am strong and have found my way back to me and my Father.I am still reading this book and can absolutely without hesitation recommend it highly! ♥️
Wendy Blessed –
If you are ready, and I mean REALLY ready, for radical change in you life, this is a must read! Sarah Jake’s Roberts gives us a very real, and transparent account of the blessing of transformation that God did in her life. If you are praying for the same, be prepared to do some real, honest, even painful, soul searching, and inner work. You will not be disappointed with the radical transformation that God does with your life.
Dacie Summers –
This book was inspirational while incorporating everyday things that people do and rational ways to partner with God in order for me to grow! I loved how Sarah Jakes Roberts weaved her story into this book; she was transparent and honest about her journey. I appreciate that she explained her steps instead of being inspirational without the how’s or whys. I’ve learned so many things and have begun implementing some already!

I absolutely loved this book. I read Sarah’s first book Lost and Found and couldn’t wait to read this book. I regularly listen to her podcast and love how honest about her journey she is. She definitely spoke to me through this book and gave a lot of helpful tips that I plan on using in my life. Easy read that I was able to accomplish in my one sitting. Thank you Sarah for sharing with other woman and giving hope to never give up.

Great book that forces you to look inward and reflect on root of negative thoughts or emotions. Once you discover root of negative emotions, the book gives example about how ask God for help and declare HIS Word over that area. It gives steps and practical suggestion about moving forward in your life from your past. I highly recommend this book. Sarah shares a lot of her mistakes and the tools use to overcome then and step into victory.
Anna –
This is a PHENOMENAL book! I encourage you to read it and then put action behind the instruction. You will not be disappointed if you both read and then do. Awesome job Sarah Jakes Roberts- I thank you for your obedience to His call- in pushing past the “safe and comfortable” places. It’s an inspiration to me and many many others.

I love this book so much. I kept on highlighting everything. It was just the thing I needed on this journey to liberation. You want to look at your self and take stock of everything that you are…you want to tell yourself the truth that you know about yourself and let go of your need to control. You see God in this.

This book is what every young, seasoned and in-between woman should read if she truly wants to confront her hurts, pains, mistakes and GROW from them. This book allows one to purposely allow God to be the head of your life. It is a graceful, raw truth of what so many of us have experienced. Allow it to help you on your journey to a God-centered life full of self love.
Keiana Webb –
Within the first chapter, I knew it was a divine reason why I was reading this book. After listening to Sarah’s sermons on YouTube, I was determined to try read her book. And I knew it was God calling me to it. I’m in the most uncomfortable season in my life with many paradigms I’ve shaped over the years that have managed how I deal with certain struggles. And this book taught me to embrace my vulnerabilities and to not hide for them. It’s a wonderful book that I’ve recommended to every woman I know!
Cathy Anderson –
Yes I made up a word because not only was Sarah Jakes Roberts full of motivational thoughts but it was refreshing to read the many confirmations to the doubts along my journey. This book is a book is especially for young women starting there adult life.. I look forward to purchasin more and giving as a gift.

You are a gift to us and i just want to say thank you forgiving us a glimpse of your life.we all have difficulties in life that we think we are alone, but alas there is Jesus Christ who holds our hands through it all.Thank you Sarah, may the good Lord continue to bless you and use you for his glory.
BriannaBrianna –
So nice I bought it twice! I purchased this book after beginning the audio and hearing too many gems not to have a physical copy on hand. After reading some of the chapters aloud to my family, I offered to loan the book to my mother when I finished. She decided she wanted her own copy to mark up and highlight. So here we are! This book speaks to anyone who has allowed their past to affect their present/future. Only get this if you’re ready to be called putt and actually make a change in your life.

Book did not come this way. I have had it for a while. Just started reading it and it is amazing. I’ve always loved Sarah jakes Roberts but this book is very eye opening and I relate to her so much more now.
Amazon Customer –
This book is life-changing. Sarah Jakes Roberts’ deep vulnerability and her gift for prose makes this book worthwhile. I felt a good amount of hope after reading the book. Typically, books like this do not give thorough steps as to how to move forward, but Roberts covers that. I definitely recommend this book if you are someone who appreciates the gift of writing and who is willing to be openly engaging with tour vulnerabilities throughout the book.
