Summary: A Keeper for the Bookshelf!
Review: A WOMAN AND HER GOD is collection of encouraging messages from well-known authors and speakers (Beth Moore, Jill Briscoe, Sandra D. Wilson, Kathleen Hart, Dr, David Hager, Thelma Wells, Bevery LaHaye, and Lori LaHaye Scheck). The goal of each message is to convey to the reader her "extraordinary" purpose. The messages are for married and single women as well as for the young and mature.

Some of the messages that were tremendously enjoyed by this reviewer were:

A WOMAN AND HER GOD:
Popular bible study teacher, Beth Moore begins the series of messages with "A Woman and Her God." Beth's down to earth style may be familiar to others and warmly received by new readers. While reading Beth's passionate message, readers may find themselves underlining or highlighting certain statements that really touch them.

"We were meant to utterly devote ourselves to Him."

"One thing that is so incredible about allowing our Father to meet our needs first thing in the day is that if our husband or friend showers us with love later on, our cup overflows. But it's not their job to intially meet the needs of our soul."

AS JESUS CARED FOR WOMEN:
"It only takes a quick study of Scripture to discover that Jesus broke all the cultural codes of his time in terms of His treatment toward women." The only male writer in the group, David Hager, M.D., provides a wonderful look at how Jesus interacted with women and fulfilled their needs. Dr. Hager points out several lessons that can be found in the Scripture such as respect (Luke 7:36-38) and love ( Mark 5:35-43).

BEING A GODLY WOMAN THROUGH EVERY STAGE OF LIFE:
Kathleen Hart says, "Choose to be satisfied with Jesus and have His peace in this moment." Kathleen encourages the reader to explore where she is at right now in her life with six poignant questions.

The other writers cover such topics as a woman's role, self-concept, the spirit of unity and trusting God. This is a book you might want to keep as a copy or purchase as a gift for friends. The messages are definitely encouraging and worth reading again and again.

Review: I am always impressed with Beth Moore but not only do you get Beth in this book but several other phenomenal Christian writers as well. This book really ministers to a woman's needs and gives incredible insight to the seasons of a woman's life and application of God's word. I would highly recommend this book!
