For all Catholic Women

As a Catholic women in her 20s, I often feel that literature is written to women older than me who have children at home or even grown children. I find it hard to relate to these kind of books, and I usually try to stay away from them. This was not the case at all with this book. I found myself relating to it on so many different levels, and now, several weeks after finishing the book, I still hear Benkovic's words in my head as I go through my daily routine, attend Mass, and seek to live a Christ-centered life. I believe Catholic women, of all ages and levels of spiritual maturity, will be able to relate to and benefit from reading this book.

Full of Grace: Women and athe Abundant Life

It was an excellent book. EAch time I read it I learn more and feel refreshed. I purchased a copy for my daughter and the lovely young women I wanted to be my daughter-in-law. No matter what, they both will benefit from this lovely book as women and as peace makers in this world.

Powerful! A 'must' for every library!

A stimulating and inspiring book with practical guidelines on how to live a victorious "grace-filled" life by patterning one's thoughts, words and actions after Mary, the perfect handmaiden. Full of Grace is like a manual that guides you through the basics of prayer, eucharistic adoration, spiritual direction, discerning the promptings of the Holy Spirit and growing in spiritual wisdom. I especially enjoyed chapter 7 entitled: "Resurrection" which helps you identify the "wounds of the heart" and offers practical guidelines for inner healing. This practical and insightful book may be used for personal or group study. It will help you to grow spiritually and to be a conduit of grace to others. Next to the Catechism and Bible it is a "must" for every library!

Benkovic provides a clear and practical guidepost for women desiring a deeper understanding of their own spirituality and feminity in her book Full of Grace. Her inspiring testimony and inspired interpretation of feminity and the Catholic faith give readers a fresh perspective on modern spiritual living. Full of Grace is an excellent, dynamic resource for women today.

Dynamic, inspiring, a spiritual path

In prose that reaches into the interior life of every woman, Johnnette Benkovic encourages women everywhere to experience God's profound love and mercy. She outlines a spiritual path that is dynamic and inspiring, and leads the reader to discover what lies latent deep within her soul. This book will benefit women of all ages, but is also a light for men who desire to live an abundant life in relationship with God. I recommend it highly.
