Description
Do you want to minister to the women around you, but find yourself stuck in a rut? Are you bored with "the way you've always done it" when it comes to serving others in your church, community, friendships, or family? The Whole Woman looks at what it means to care for another woman holistically--heart, soul, mind and strength--as an extension of loving God. The book explores how we might care for the emotions, motivations, desires, thoughts, and relationships of ourselves and others. It also provides some action steps that you can immediately put into practice. The contributors of this book come from all sorts of backgrounds (professors, ministry
leaders, convention leaders, and others) but have one thing in common: they love to see women grow in their walks with the Lord. Join the authors of The Whole Woman, and find out how you can best serve the women around you.
