So what are we reading? Here is the September book for our Book Club:

November Nonfiction:  Being Fully Known by Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith

A weaving of biblical wisdom, keen insights into human behavior, and personal reflection prompts, Being Fully Known tackles the negative self-talk and limiting beliefs that leave us stuck in lives that are not our own.

The world pressures us to do. God invites us to be. In this freeing book, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith speaks to all of us who hold back because we fear vulnerability or rejection. Drawing on her background as a physician, spiritual mentor, and coach, Dr. Saundra helps us bridge the gap between wanting to express our true selves and the beliefs that keep us in fear-based living.

Structured with the option to be used as part of a 21-day fast, Being Fully Known blends Scripture, science, and story to offer insights into how we can:

  • discover where we naturally fit rather than forcing ourselves to fit in
  • embrace the fullness of our identity apart from our assumed roles
  • overcome mental barriers that cause us to seek accomplishment over contentment
  • reconnect with the courage to live into what God sees in us
  • experience greater joy in our relationships, career, and creative expression


Being Fully Known is a journey toward God-awareness, self-acceptance, and the fulfillment that comes from knowing we are seen and understood. Step into your God-given, joy-filled identity as you follow the Holy Spirit’s mentoring through this life-changing guide to being overdone.
