PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION

Discover the bottomless, refreshing Well of God’s Word–and experience a fullness and peace beyond your circumstances.In the chaos of our everyday, it can be difficult to live out and apply the truths of Scripture. We want more of Jesus, but we find ourselves looking to our own lives and accomplishments for our worth and identity. And while that may buoy us for a time, we’re often left feeling dried up, discouraged, and longing for more.Gretchen Saffles knows what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and unable to flourish. In The Well-Watered Woman, Gretchen leads us to the Well of fullness, the Word of freedom, and the Way of fruitfulness. She teaches that God’s Word will satisfy us for all eternity.Using Scripture and her own personal story of surrender, Gretchen offers spiritually hungry women tangible tools to not only know Jesus more but to live a life that thoroughly enjoys Him, seeks Him, and follows Him into freedom.

My Review:
“The goal of the Well-Watered Woman isn’t to be someone, but to know someone—the one who changes everything.  Her ambitions and dreams are being transformed by Jesus as he shows her, day by day, the better way to live.  As she makes it her daily pursuit to know Jesus, she becomes the someone God created her to be:  the Well-Watered Woman”.  (Quote from book.)

What a beautifully written book! The sections of this book:  “The Well”, “The Word”, and “The Way” build on each other and lay an excellent foundation for fruitful Christian living.   I loved this author’s deep love and respect for the Bible and her commitment to live every day according to the Word.  I believe every Christian woman, no matter what her season of life, will find this book to be a source of encouragement.   As the author consistently points us to Jesus and away from the things we grasp tightly in this world, I found myself convicted and comforted. Two of the many thoughts from this book that will have an impact on my life are the two phrases “ Word before World” and “Seasons change, but God’s Word doesn’t”.   This book is both practical and inspiring, and I’m looking forward to using the journal that accompanies it to go further into the Bible and these concepts.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher.  All opinions are my own.
