12 single mothers who championed their children and changed history.
Life lessons from single mothers throughout history inspire single mothers today. Single moms are not just a product of our modern culture; single mothers throughout history have raised not only their children but also nations with a higher vision for life. Holding Her Head High recounts stories of twelve such women from the third to the twenty-first centuries who found ways to twist their fates to represent God's destiny for their lives. Stories from women like Rachel Lavein Fawcett, abandoned single mother of Alexander Hamilton; Harriet Jacobs, an unwed mother of slavery whose autobiography was published the year the Civil War began; and widowed Belva Lockwood, the first woman to officially run for President, all carrying wounds but all offering insight, wisdom, and encouragement.
Lessons include:
- Listen for God's higher calling
- Hold your head high
- Dare to dream
- Champion your children
- Heal with humor

"For every mother who thinks they are merely ordinary, Janine Turner has skillfully illustrated that their destiny and that of their children is divinely purposed. Through the stories of these remarkable women Janine challenges them to look deep within themselves to find the woman God created them to be. I hope you will let them inspire you to use your influence and God-given authority to help your children fulfill their destiny." Victoria Osteen
