Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World (Gift Edition): Finding Intimacy with God in the Busyness of Life75 reviews
Joanna Weaver
WaterBrook Press, 2007
Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World
I knew what the book was about before I bought it, as it had been recommended to me by a relative. I have found it to be very thought provoking and inspiring. While the author does point out her thoughts on a deeper inspection of the accounts of Mary and Martha, she has questions for the student that are introspective and, I hope, will prove to be life changing. They make me reassess my ...

One Month to Live: Thirty Days to a No-Regrets Life 17 reviews
Kerry Shook, Chris Shook
WaterBrook Press, 2008
Terrific Guide for Life
One Month To Live by Kerry and Chris Shook This book is not what I thought it would be from the title. I had expected to be reviewing a book that talked to cancer or other dying patients to uplift them. However, this is a book for everyone, and it is excellent. The authors advise us to imagine what if we had but one month to live... how would we spend our time? This really makes you put your ...

Every Woman's Battle: Discovering God's Plan for Sexual and Emotional Fulfillment 31 reviews
Shannon Ethridge
WaterBrook Press, 2003
Buy It-Read It-Practice It
My pastor recommended this book after my own fall from grace and it has been eye opening (or closing). This book gives you the tools to curb your sexual appetite that is fed by your eyes. You look at a beautiful woman (God's creation) and notice here breasts, or any other part of her anatomy, so you stare and process this image with your eyes, then send it to your brain to remember her in your ...

Liz Curtis Higgs
WaterBrook Press, 1999
Bad Girls From the Bible and What We Can Learn From Them
This book tells a real world story similar to the story of each of the "Bad Girls" of the Bible, then tells the actual biblical story for each. This is followed by though-provoking questions for modern-day women to think about how we can apply this to our lives.

Every Man's Battle: Winning the War on Sexual Temptation One Victory at a Time (The Every Man Series)160 reviews
Stephen Arterburn, Fred Stoeker
WaterBrook Press, 2000
Higher Standards
As an unmarried woman, I love this book because it gives me hope that there are some men out there who are trying to raise the bar to God's standards for sexual purity. I think more women should read this book to be more aware of how serious this issue is for men and to encourage/hold accountable those men in their lives. I pray that God will use this book to change your heart for eternity, set ...

Shattered Dreams: God's Unexpected Pathway to Joy33 reviews
Larry Crabb
WaterBrook Press, 2002
For all who hunger and thirst...
It's interesting reading through the comments posted on Amazon books. Call me a pessimist, but I find I often pull up the low stars reviews first. I want to see what made angry or disappointed folks bother to post at all. Are they on a mission to save others from wasting their time? Are they trying to correct the author's theology? Or, are they merely wanting to contribute another perspective to ...

Insightful guide for living an intentional Christian Life
In his latest book, TO BE TOLD, Dan Allender encourages readers to examine their lives in a search for the story that God is telling through their existence. Allender says we often don't know our own stories because we doubt their existence, dismiss their importance, or we're distracted.

Christian Writers' Market Guide 2008: The Essential Reference Tool for the Christian Writer (Christian ...7 reviews
Sally Stuart
WaterBrook Press, 2008
The Essential Guide
A book that survives and thrives through 23 editions is a successful and valuable product. This is certainly true of Sally Stuart's "Christian Writers' Market Guide 2008."
As her sub-title suggests, this work is THE reference tool for the Christian writer. Such a claim is not the stuff of info-mercials; it is reality. As The Midwest Book Review extols: "An essential reference for anyone ...

Terrific Autobiography By An All-American Wholesome Artist
I highly recommend this read. Although I enjoy reading biographies as well as appreciate the broad artistry of Amy Grant--singer, songwriter, actress, television host--this selection is a gem. Unlike the usual format of a bio, this one has much more...flavor. Grant's aptly named work, MOSAIC, intertwines intimate revelations with songs and poems that Grant has written--some previously ...

Chantel Hobbs
WaterBrook Press, 2007
Must read if you are serious about losing weight!
This was a very good book. Chantel does a great job getting the message across in a very simple yet powerful way. I love the fact that she is not another "guru" out there pretending that if you just had more will power you could lose the weight. She is a real person with very real struggles that all of us can relate to. She really helps you "get it". You can finally make the necessary changes to ...
