This book reads sort of like an autobiography with Biblical
stories throughout it. Each chapter contains a story about a difficult time in Gunn’s
life and a story from the Bible where a woman has gone through difficulties as
well.
Gunn then brings out how God and his grace worked into each story to help
and uplift each of the characters.
Robin Jones Gunn did a very good job at bringing out aspects
of grace in popular Bible stories that I had never thought about. It was
amazing to see how each one of these ladies was covered by His Grace.
Gunn also
has a way of writing and telling her like a friend sharing something personal to
another friend.
Although Gunn’s personal story is very interesting and I did
enjoy reading it, I was expecting more grace stories from other women that Gunn
had interviewed or meet over the years. There is none of that, just her life
and her observations of those women in the Bible.
This book is written for women, though men might enjoy it as
well. It is interesting, touching, and thought provoking.
This book was provided for review, at no cost, by Zondervan Publishing
features Robin Jones Gunn and Tricia Goyer at their best.
