Rating: Summary: WOMEN - BEWARE Review: As with anything deceptive, this book has some truth. However, this man is leading many women astray by his total distortion of God's Word. I read this and one of Jakes' other books because I knew many women were reading them & hanging on every word. Why can we not just read God's Word which clearly states the position and role of women, as well as men, in the world and His Kingdom. I find it amazing that women are so unwilling to allow their husbands to be the "spiritual" head as the Bible so clearly instructs, yet they will flock to a strange man for their spiritual instruction without a thought! And yes, I do understand that when husbands are the leaders in the home, this does not mean domination, being treated as a secondary person, etc. I have been HAPPILY married for 37 years and it is because of the Lord, not "Bishop" Jakes.
Rating: Summary: God's Lady! Review: T.D. Jakes has a way of knowing what women want, and need. With the well received "Woman Thou Art Loosed," and the follow up "Daddy Love His Little Girls," now women everywhere are praising "The Lady, Her Lover and Her Lord!" He knows what women think and offer how we can get what we desire, along with scripturally-based reasons why we don't. His books touch on crucial topics such as, A Woman with Balance (chapter 5) that allows women to see the need for balance in all areas of their lives. The husband, the children, work and God need equal attention to be fruitful. If we become too one sided in our focus then something suffers. In chapter 9 T.D. Jakes discusses Pillow Talk, where he enlightens us regarding the power of words and how we need to be an encouarging feminine voice that doesn't tear down, but instead learn how to compliment, encourage and build up. T.D. Jakes is saying that while we will all have disagreements, women should never become a nagging presence, but instead a soothing one, reminding the man in her life that she will now and forever support him. He urges us to allow our words to be words of caring and nurture. Chapter 14 eloquently touched on the topic of Serving the Lord and Making the Money. He reminds us as the bible warns that we cannot serve two masters. Money and career is only an enhancement of our lives and should never become the scope of who we are. God should be the focus of all of our endeavors. I highly recommend this enlightening book for every woman who seeks a deeper understanding of themselves, their spouse and their God. T.D. Jakes is inspirational and gently touches on topics that meet the needs of women everywhere. The Lady Her Lover and Her Lord not only gives us Godly instruction, but also the inside track from T.D. Jakes perspective as a man.

Rating: Summary: SHOULD BE REQUIRED READING FOR ALL WOMEN AGE 13+ Review: T. D. Jakes opens your heart to all the Lord wants for us as women. This book is easy to read and his beautiful use of language heightens the wisdom he imparts with a constant flow of emotion. Being a two-time cancer survivor, divorcee, and recently turning 50, I had begun to let go of the notion that I would be blessed with new, rewarding, fulfilling experiences. Thank God a friend recommended this book. I now know that I am the Lord's Lady, that he has a Lover for me somewhere (and, if not, that's OK), and that my Lord has infinite blessings waiting to be uleashed. I look forward to working with my new "tag team" partner, Jesus, to let his Glory shine through my life. Ladies, its YOUR life, let Him use you and enjoy it!
Rating: Summary: The most touching and truthful book I have ever read. Review: First off, I'd like to say that this book took me a day to read. It was that good that I could not put it down. Bishop Jakes said so many things in that book that had me thinking hey that sounds like me or that's what I need to be doing. I really loved this book and I have shared with everyone I know because it's that good. If you haven't read this book, I suggest you buy yourself a copy because it will be a book that you will always want by your side.
Rating: Summary: The Lady, Her Lover, and Her Lord Review: I thought it was an excellent book. Bishop Jakes truly understands women and has compassion for them. I couldn't put it down. I had introduced a friend to this book and now she can't put it down!
Rating: Summary: A must read for women striving to be the Proverbs 31 woman. Review: This book was excellent. I couldn't put it down and read it in less than two days. I have never recommended a book to anyone, and I must say this book was excellent. I've never known a man to know a woman's perspective on things so well. He also added some advice so that we would be able to understand the men in our lives. I promise anyone who reads this book won't be disappointed.
Rating: Summary: Ladies, We've Got To Prepare Ourselves Review: This book is very inspiring for married women and also for single women. Reading this book as a young single woman has taught me to embrace my Lord and to wait on my Lover. I truly believe that a woman has to be trained to become a lady. This book is a good resource(after the Holy Bible)to prepare Women for the Princes God will present them to. If you haven't read this book you're missing out on a real blessing!
Rating: Summary: Redundant.... Review: Everything you need to know is written in the first three chapters. A potentially good self-help book if that is where you are in your life. However, the author repeats himself quite often. For example, how many times does he use the twisted tree scenario?
