I’ve been hoping for a book like this one for quite some time. I’ve gone through several “big name” Bible studies for women, some even accompanied by a DVD, but this 112 page book packs a lot of punch. As you can see by the cover art, this book is geared mainly towards women, but there are still truths that men can benefit from hearing – I’ve spent time discussing this book with my husband and he’s expressed appreciation for the different perspectives offered.
Forrest Gump is famous for his comment about shoes, but the author of this book, Sandra Petrusaitis, expresses that a woman’s footwear (or lack of) gives the world an idea of who she is, where she’s been, where she’s going, what she’s about, and assists in her expression of spirituality.
From the acceptance of being a woman, something that is both loved and hated, Sandra offers examples throughout her book of women not typically noticed or focused on in the Bible. While we all have our own revelations at our own time and in our own walk with God, Sandra transparently shares some of her own.
If you’re looking for a book that will help deepen your relationship with God or you want to discover who you are to God, this book is an absolute gem. I appreciate and applaud the author for her expression of faith while not disqualifying her readers. I look forward to reading more books as they become available.
