Overview

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life--barely keeping your head above water?

Don't despair! You hold a life preserver in your hand. You're just one choice away from correcting the trajectory of your life. Your journey toward freedom begins the moment you choose to stand up and face your life with courage.

In Courage For Life, author Ann White shares with authenticity and raw emotion the story of how she walked away from a life steeped in dysfunction to a life restored in God's grace. With honesty, kindness, and vulnerability, she provides step-by-step direction and proven guidance through seven intentional, doable steps that will ultimately alter your life, no matter what difficult situation you're experiencing.

With courage, you'll learn to:

  • Celebrate freedom from your fears.
  • Experience the power and joy of intentional, healthy choices.
  • Replace the guise of perfectionism with authenticity.
  • Say yes or no with firmness and love.
  • Rebuild a healthy marriage and establish strong relationships with family and friends.
  • Stop hiding behind walls of shame and insecurity.
  • Step courageously into the life God created for you.

"If you have been searching for a way out of wherever you are or whatever you are going through, Ann White provides a path and a process to take the next best step to a better life--the life God has made you for and called you to." --STEVE ARTERBURN. Founder of New Life Ministries and host of the #1 nationally syndicated Christian counseling program New Life Live! heard and watched by over two million people each week.

Ann is an internationally known author, speaker, and passionate Bible teacher. She founded her global ministry, Courage For Life, out of a calling to share with others how God and His Word brought restoration to her life and marriage. Having personally experienced God's grace, salvation, and the life-changing power of the Bible, Ann's desire is to extend this same love, mercy, and encouragement to others, so they too may be reconciled to God. Ann is a wife, mother, and grandmother. She and her family reside in Belleair Shores, FL.

Editorial Reviews


Perhaps the greatest barrier to greatness, transformation, and simply getting better, is fear. In Courage For Life, Ann White provides a path and a process out of paralyzing fear and into the courage to do the next right thing and take the next best step to a better life--the life God has made you for and called you to. The results in her own life, and the lives of those who have followed her path, are the greatest endorsement of this book. If you have been searching for a way out of wherever you are or whatever you are going through, Courage For Life is the book I'd recommend. --Steve Arterburn. Founder of New Life Ministries Host of the #1 nationally syndicated Christian counseling program New Life Live! heard and watched by over two million people each week.


Those of us who have lived a while know one thing, a meaningful life takes courage. Ann White shows us how to unleash that lion inside us in her excellent book, Courage For Life. Her ideas are inviting and easy to follow, yet profound enough to impact a person's life. As I read her book, I felt a spirit of hope grow inside of me and realized I could live the rest of my life free from fear. Read this book, trust God, and have courage for life! --John Mason. Author of numerous best-selling books, including An Enemy Called Average


I've spent my career learning the principles of influence, and during that time, I've discovered that "change" is one of the most difficult and challenging actions anyone can take. That's why Ann White's new book, Courage For Life, is so important. There are millions of people living in fear, unable to gather the courage to change their lives. Whether you're experiencing that fear, struggling with change, or simply stuck in your life or career, this is a must read. Get this book, and buy a copy for a friend. The world needs to hear Ann's story and embrace the power of courage. --Phil Cooke, Ph.D. Filmmaker, Media Consultant. Author of One Big Thing: Discovering What You Were Born to Do


It takes miraculous courage to conquer paralyzing fear and failure. Ann's personal journey from abuse and hopelessness to abundance and joy in her new book, Courage For Life, gives readers step-by-step instructions, and true inspiration for anyone who's seeking a way out. Don't miss this one! --Kathleen Cooke. Co-founder of Cooke Pictures and Influence Lab Author of Hope 4 Today: Connecting with God in a Distracted World


Ann White's story is an inspiration to those who choose to do the hard things in marriage, rather than take the easy way out. This demonstration of one wife's courageous determination to trust God's truth, bathed in His grace, prove trust and obedience can overcome the deceiver who delights in crushing Christian marriages. --Governor Sonny and Mary Perdue.


It's fun to have the opportunity to recommend a book when I have had the privilege of mentoring and encouraging the author in her academic, teaching, and writing pursuits. Ann has created a beautiful work in Courage For Life based on her own hard-won experience with inspiring concepts that are easy to apply and teach. I really appreciate the easy-to-use layout and can see the book used in a variety of contexts, especially church small group discussions and in hope-filled recovery ministries. Thanks, Ann. --Doug Rosenau, Ed.D. Professor, Psychologist. Author of A Celebration of Sex, Co-author of Total Intimacy



Ann is a native Carolina girl who met her husband and soul mate shortly after moving to Atlanta in 1978. She founded Courage For Life, out of a calling to share with others how God and His Word brought restoration to her life and marriage. Ann is an internationally known author, speaker, and passionate Bible teacher. For years, Ann's heart has been burdened for those who need to hear God's Word and are suffering due to circumstances beyond their control. Having personally experienced God's grace, salvation, and the life-changing power of the Bible, Ann's desire is to extend this same love, mercy, and encouragement to others, so they too may be reconciled to God. Despite her busy schedule, most days you can find Ann spending quiet moments with the Lord, hanging out with her husband, boys, and their families, writing, reading, enjoying dear friends, and encouraging everyone she meets to embrace COURAGE FOR LIFE. She prays you will join her.
