Amazon info: Counter the lies that keep you from abundant living. Satan is the master deceiver; his lies are endless. And the lies Christian women believe are at the root of most of their struggles. “Many women live under a cloud of personal guilt and condemnation,” says Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth. “Many are in bondage to their past. Others are gripped by fear of rejection and a longing for approval. Still others are emotional prisoners.” In this bestseller, Lies Women Believe, Nancy exposes those areas of deception most commonly believed by Christian women—lies about God, sin, priorities, marriage and family, emotions, and more. She then sheds light on how we can be delivered from bondage and set free to walk in God’s grace, forgiveness, and abundant life. Nancy offers the most effective weapon to counter and overcome Satan’s deceptions: God’s truth!
My rating: 5 stars My review: I read this book back when it came out almost 20 years ago. Mochilas Fjallraven Kanken Classic I liked it then. I like it even better now. nike air presto Nancy Wolgemuth has always been one that I’ve had great respect for because she’s pretty unwavering in her commitment to keeping the bible as the central thing to any part of life she’s discussing. That’s why when, prior to being married herself, she could give marriage advice to women… Mochilas Kanken Baratas because she sticks to what the bible says and calls women to act accordingly. That’s the case here. This updated version freshens the message only insomuch as is needed by the massive cultural shifts we’ve seen over these last years. nike air max 2017 The message is the same. Sin trips us up like it has since the fall. The devil lies. We believe the lies and often act upon them. The word of God is clear about the truth. Walk in truth. While I’m not a huge fan of the little vignettes of what Eve might have been thinking at the beginning of each chapter, even that serves to show us how this has been a problem for women since the day Eve ate the forbidden fruit and how each “lie” has it’s foundation in original sin even if it might look differently for each person. I really like that this book, and the accompanying study guide book are unashamed in their pointing out the truth of our tendency to excuse sin in our desire to live like the world. We listen to satan’s lies, dwell on them, start to believe them, do believe them, and then act on them. nike air max 1 But it doesn’t have to be that way. We need to replace the lies with truth. tn requin pas cher homme That’s where the rubber meets the road because sometimes we believe the lie that not doing something about it – our sin- is easier than dealing with it. I started writing down specific quotes as I read but I soon realized that I’d pretty much be copying the entire book if I went that route so I stopped. Thankfully the study guide has highlighted many of the key quotes in the book to aid in your study of the topics. I highly recommend this book for all women and if possible as a group study with a family or church women’s small group. Thanks to Moody for sending a copy in exchange for a review.
