Hi Christa,
I am going to start an “email” Bible study with my sister. She is not walking with the Lord, but she agreed to do a study with me. Can you provide me with the questions you created for this book? I think this is the kind of study that will help her (and me) become women of God.

Thanks for your encouragement and thoughts about this book. It sounds like just what I was looking for.

Christa, this particular quote was an encouragement to me:

“God’s grace is enough for our deepest anguish, for the pray we feel He’s never heard and for the sadness that for awhile we must live with. In pain, we should not take things into our own hands. We must continue to call on Him, our Savior. We need to trust Him even though our world is caving in. At times of breakdown, we are often nearest to a breakthrough.”

Thanks for posting this review. I had never heard of the book.

Oh, Christa, thanks for providing this review. This sounds like a book I need to get for our girls in our youth group.

Thank you so much for giving book reviews such as this. There are so many books out there that claim to be “christian” that are false and are not teaching biblical principles. I am so discouraged sometimes when I go to christian book stores and see the books that they are promoting. People go to these stores to find books that will encourage them in the Lord and they end up reading books that promote and false gospel. I am so glad that you found a book to go through in your ministry that encourages women to be what God created them to be! Thanks Christa!

This sounds like a great book, especially for, as you said, discipling younger women or women new in the faith. What a powerful tool to dismantling the lies of feminism and self-fulfillment that inundate American colleges, society and the workforce today. I am sure I could use some of these great reminders myself. I love the quote that “At times of breakdown, we are often nearest to a breakthrough.” So true!
