Author Tonia Woolever, a Christian speaker, counselor and mentor, teaches women how to be established in the intimate and deeply satisfying life offered to every believer through Jesus Christ. Focusing on the role the Holy Spirit plays in establishing a believer in the love and life of God, the first section invites a woman to abandon the role of victim and choose to be the woman God designed her to be: living by faith in God's presence and goodness; a lover of God and others; satisfied by God and liberated from unruly desires and emotions. Throughout, Tonia shares stories of how she has learned to know God in the midst of her life, the issues of the heart, and in her marriage. In a second section Tonia shares how her marriage failed in spite of she and her husband being serious Christians in the pastorate, and how the Holy Spirit taught them to love one another through God's way of living in a true covenant marriage. A third section of the book provides a detailed study of every scripture that describes the woman and wife God designed, including Tonia's unique and wise treatise on the real nature, purpose and power of a wife's submission. Reflection questions are included at the end of each chapter, making this an ideal personal or group study for women. A Leader's Guide for Group Study is sold separately on the author's website, www.shammah.org.
