Shannon Perry

Women are warriors…

They fight for their families, friends, and faith, but they often lay down their gloves when caring for themselves. Their opponent comes to “steal, kill, and destroy.” He throws every possible punch to knock them down for the count. The truth is, victory has been promised when they find the GUTS to enter the ring and the GRACE to endure the fight.

Counselor, speaker, and award-winning author Shannon Perry asked thousands of women at her conferences this question; “What areas of life do you struggle with the most?” In Grace and Guts, Shannon addresses the 12 core topics women identified as their biggest challenges in life. Shannon offers Biblical guidance, step-by-step solutions, and humor to help women deliver the knock-out punch. Overcome emotional and spiritual battles, and embrace God’s purpose.

Have you ever…

• entangled yourself in a toilet paper holder in a public bathroom?
• had a horse use your car hood as a salt lick?
• left a sandwich in your purse for over a month?
• got your car stuck in the middle of a wedding reception in the bride’s front lawn?

These are just a few of the hilarious snapshots in the life of Shannon Perry. By sharing real-life moments of amusement and awkwardness, Shannon finds spiritual lessons in the midst of everyday life. ‘Grace in High Heels,’ paired with her conference ‘If the Shoe Fits,’ offers hope by addressing women’s daily struggles. ‘Grace in High Heels’ offers reflections on humor, hope, and healing, with 28 chapters featuring scripture, stories, and reflection questions for faith. By taking an honest look at the comical and mundane things that women face on a daily basis, Shannon provides practical, scripture-based advice for facing daily challenges with grace, walking the path marked by God’s heel prints.

Have you ever…

• Wanted to know how to have successful relationships?
• Needed help communicating with your parents?
• Felt like you didn’t fit and you didn’t understand why?
• Had tough questions and needed answers?

These are just a few of the questions that Shannon answers in her latest book for teen girls, “Stand”. With the help and input of ten teenage girls sharing their own experiences and stories, Shannon speaks the “raw” but “real” truth to teen girls. She gives practical and scriptural advice that helps them make the best decisions for life.

Stand offers truth and help for teens in the following areas: Friendship, Dating, Esteem and Body Image, Bullying, Cutting, Gender Identity, Sex, Dealing with the “Tough” Stuff, How to Effectively Talk with your Parents, Technology and more.

‘The Overlooked Generation’ was written as a result of parents pleading for answers to the struggles often faced when raising a teen. Shannon holds a Master’s Degree in Education and Counseling and is a Certified Instructor in Parenting Classes and Crisis Counseling. Her experience is invaluable as she shares real-life stories and practical tips drawn from working with youth. “Bookviews” says, “[Shannon] has the knowledge and experience to address bullying and other difficult issues that include eating disorders, drug use, and other problems that today’s tweens and teen must address and avoid. Well researched and filled with good advice, I would recommend this book for any parent of a young girl or boy who wants to deal with these issues.”

“Combining informative information with scriptural principles, Shannon Perry offers parents practical, yet timeless advice on how to raise teens and tweens in an ever-evolving culture.” — Josh McDowell
