"THE COUNTERFEIT"
For every good thing God promises, the enemy's counterfeit lies in wait.
​​
We understand that everything God has created is beautiful, and His intention is for us to live a full life. Despite the abundance of goodness that God has in store for us, it often feels like we are consistently falling short.
​
It's not that we are unaware of what is good or that we lack the desire for it. However, one of the challenges we face is that alongside every good thing God promises us, there are counterfeits that Satan creates to deceive us into believing that these counterfeits align with God's intentions.
​
These counterfeits, as Jesus referred to them, are like 'wolves in sheep’s clothing.' We've all encountered them, and perhaps, in a twisted turn of events, we have unknowingly become someone else's counterfeit.
​
This book serves as an exploration into the unveiling of these wolves in sheep's clothing. Some may label them as narcissists, but fundamentally, they are simply counterfeits—imitations of the love and friendship that God envisioned when He created relationships.
Girl, Get Up!
​
Girl, Get Up is not just a book—it’s a resurrection call. A bold invitation to rise from the ashes of trauma, silence, and survival and step fully into the life God has always seen for you. We live in a world that tells women empowerment means performing harder and healing means fixing ourselves with quick tips and self-help slogans. But you know by now—none of that goes deep enough. What you need is not another checklist. What you need is truth that frees, love that restores, and a voice strong enough to wake the parts of you that were never meant to stay buried. Rooted in Scripture, yet fiercely contemporary: You bridge the biblical narrative from Genesis to the New Testament with clarity, showing God’s design for women and how it applies today. Empowering without apology: The book doesn’t water down the message to please culture or the church. It says what needs to be said—God treasures women, and women are not secondary. Stories that stick: From Eve to Mary Magdalene, you highlight real women, real struggles, and divine purpose, giving readers models of courage and faith they can actually relate to. Accessible and conversational: It reads like a wise, loving friend talking directly to you, not a sermon or lecture. That intimacy makes the spiritual truths land harder. It challenges and restores: This isn’t just motivational—it’s redemptive. It calls women to reclaim their voice, their calling, and their authority, rooted in God, not culture. Through sacred storytelling, biblical depth, and her own journey through brokenness and healing, author Nontobeko Kolstad leads you into the tender, honest spaces of womanhood—where comparison cuts deep, shame lingers heavy, abuse leaves scars, and silence feels safer than speaking. With compassion and courage, she points you back to the One who still speaks life into what looks dead, who still calls your name, and who has never once changed His mind about you. This book is for the woman who is tired of being the strong one for everybody else. For the woman who buried her voice just to be accepted. For the woman who secretly wonders if she’s too broken to ever be whole again. You are not too far gone. You are not forgotten. You are not what happened to you. You are a daughter. And it’s time to rise.
