A Must Read Book for All Women Who Want to Dig Deeper

I really enjoyed this book. It uses stories from the Old Testament, followed by stories from the New Testament, which she then parallels with how we can grow in our relationships, especially marriage. She is a great story teller and makes the practical applications of the Bible come alive. It talks about how we need to risk intimacy with God first. Do we really trust him? Can we rest in him? An excellent book to read after Heart to Heart about Men, one of her earlier books. It's the kind of book that you have to read more than once to extract all the nuggets of truth. Enjoy!
