Lord, may not forget what i've read... so much to apply and also so much to remember to share! ( ) Very decent book on some issues and topics that women face (as Christians). We used this for a women's Bible study and enjoyed a few of the chapters. We had to skip over the chapter on PMS. Also, a couple of Martha [Peace]'s suggestions on how to deal with people (when they are being manipulative) were a little TOO much to the point and not always delicate. However, the topics such as manipulation, hurt feelings and proper relationships needed someone to NOT tiptoe around those big topics and explain what God (as He points out in Scripture) tells us to do. Mrs. Peace does a great job of bringing the Bible to life within these topics. I would recommend this book to someone that wanted to learn about topical issues facing women in this era. She pulled verses from Scripture to explain her thoughts and I must admit she did a good job of not taking verses out of context. Mrs. Peace is one author whose books I will get on her name alone; I know they are always sure to be full not just of biblical truth, but of the Bible itself. In fact, it is a rare page that does not at least allude clearly to a passage of Scripture, if it doesn’t quote one outright. This particular offering is a treatment of “biblical solutions for problems women face,” including gossip, hurt feelings, vanity, legalism, feminism, and trials. She handles each topic beautifully, with all the compassion and boldness she has become known for. My favorite statement from the book is from the chapter on the feminist influence (called, appropriately, “But What If I *Like* To Have My Ears Tickled?”). "The only way we will not be taken captive by the feminist beliefs is through the power of the Holy Spirit and God’s grace enabling us to study and believe and embrace what God has told us in His Word. What God has told us in His Word is that women are not victims. We are creatures created in God’s image for the purpose of proclaiming His excellencies (1 Peter 2:9). God, not man, determined how best and in what role women were to give Him glory. It is a joy and privilege to serve God, but we can do it rightly only on His terms." (p. 143) Mrs. Peace has embraced her God-given role as Biblical counselor and teacher of women, and shows each one of us that God has answers for the problems we all face. She reminds us that we will only experience the freedom God wishes to be ours when we face those problems on God’s terms, repent, and follow through with obedience.
