Encouraging lives of Biblical Matriachs Shine in Showing Mary
At the suggestion of author, Dr. Renita Weems, (yes, she's just that accessible to readers), our Bible study group based in the Middle East selected Showing Mary. Although Weems assumes a womanist approach usually geared towards an African American female audience, our Christian women's study group was diverse ethnically, racially, linguistically, in country of origin, and age found the text ...

The Taste Of Good Fruit 4 reviews

Walk Worthy Press, 2008
Good News!
The "Good News" that I believe this book grasps so wonderfully is the message that God does love us! No matter what the situation or how far we go in the far country, He remains faithful to us. I feel MaRita Teague has eloquently captured the culture of not only us an African-American people, but us as human and the human need for a loving and forgiving Father for ourselves as well as others. I ...

Passion & Betrayl
Ok, so i'm a lil' late in reading this book. I saw it in the store and picked it up since I haven't read any of her books. "Temptation" by Victoria Christopher Murrary was excllent. She used beleivable characters in her story. I felt the love, hate, passion, need that each of them protrayed. It's w tale of of a couple Kyla and Jefferson Blake and how they marriage almost ended because of a ...

What a Joy!
This book was WONDERFUL! I loved every bit of it! It was a page turner, and had you guessing who her attacker was and who she would end up with romantically. Awesome book! It was very uplifting to read about a REAL Christian character with all her flaws and see how she would handle difficult situations. And especially uplifting to read about what God would work out in her life. I loved the ending ...

Just a Sister Away: Understanding the Timeless Connection Between Women of Today and Women in the Bible13 reviews
Renita J. Weems
Walk Worthy Press, 2005
Just a Sister Away
Renita Weems is outstanding! She weaves these wonderful stories of women in scripture known to many of us who are familiar with Bible stories. What she is so excellent at doing is helping us see these women in a richer, deeper way and managing to bring them to life for today. We can use our imaginations as we read between the lines and see these women in the context of the cultures in which ...

Ty Adams
Walk Worthy Press, 2006
Great supplement to your bible
I found it surprising so many people had something negative to say about this book, I found to be a blessing. Not once did I ever feel like Ty Adams took a "holier-than thou" tone in her writing, nor do I feel like I was being condemned. I felt like she was being real about a subject that is so blatant in the media yet so taboo in the church and among Christians. More importantly, I felt like the ...

"a very good book"
This book is a blessing. If you are going through situations this book will show you how three "sistahs in Christ" made it through their trials. I recommmend this book to not just women but men too that are going through troubles in there life and need to see that they are not alone in their struggles.

Great book
This is the first time I have ever read anything by Ms. Bowen and I must say I LOVED IT. I laughed so hard and could not put this book down for one second. If I had known it was part of a series I would have read Church Folks, first. Absolutely loved it

Renita J. Weems
Walk Worthy Press, 2004
Its never too late to improve your quality of life
Renita, pulled together all her wisdom for women and poured into this book. It's her best ever. Its for the teenager coming into her own to the senior woman who still has unanswered questions about her choices in the past and the future. Every woman of color should have this book. It's a right of passage. Its the best gift you can give a sistah friend.

Have read this numerous time!
Wow, what a refreshing read! I stumbled upon this book at my local library and I have checked it out numerous times since then. Both characters were strong, believable and you root for them. I personally liked the spiritual side of the book. It shows that a book can have no sex but TONS of romance and still be a satisfying read. I highly recommend this book!

Great read
This is a darn good read. Enjoyed every page and called friends several times to share scenes from it. I would even get to work and have the "Girl, you won't believe what happened next" talk with my coworkers. It was a fairly quick read, but you will not feel cheated. Highly recommended!

Letting Go and Letting God control
I really enjoyed this book it showed how we can forget sometime from where we came from and how we can let other things take over our lives but we come back to the realization that it is the God in us that we need to let others see and the God in us that we worship and praise.
