MY REVIEW
I think for women, learning about the women in Jesus' life is an awesome study. Many times we as women feel a bit forgotten, overwhelmed, overloaded with life's to-do lists and laundry and caring for the kids, the house and our husbands.
As I studied through Mindy's book, I have seen that each circumstance that brought these women to Jesus was different. Each lady came with her own specific need, whether it be healing for self or a family member, or she had a longing to know more about Jesus as King, Jesus met each need.
For us, we each will get a little something different from this study, but all in all we will each walk away knowing that no matter the reason we come to Jesus, He will touch us!
I am excited to use this bible study as a reference point for a women's bible study at my local church. I am excited that God led Mindy to remind us that He loves us women and we are special. So special that he set time aside from His busy schedule during His ministry on earth to touch those came to Him with a need.

This does sound like a wonderful book. One tends to forget the women, and their ministry to Jesus.
Thank so much, Verlina, for sharing your thoughts about my study with your followers. You nailed it, Jesus met the needs of the women He encountered. He will meet our needs to.
LOVE ! Above all! Thats where its at!
Great post, and it is hard to read, and my comment would further compliment your opinion yet confuse if I related further(here); So, if from food we are what we eat a year later(through our skin) the Bible basics are important now , and the spiritual importance - I thought so as well.
Leaving it linked is enough, and I look forward to reading more!
Thanks
