From the Back Cover

CREATED FOR HIS PURPOSES. All of us wonder, at one time or another, who we are and why we're here. While society emphasizes wealth, success, and the pursuit of pleasure, the truth is that we are created by God in His image, and our fulfillment is found in pursuing His purposes for us. Becoming a Woman of Purpose will guide you to a better understanding of God's intended purposes for Himself, for us as His people, and for you as His unique creation. As you grow toward genuine peace and fulfillment, you'll learn the joy of loving God and others, waiting on Him with hope, trusting Him through suffering, serving Him with reverent fear, and fulfilling His purposes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Your Purpose: To Read This Book, July 20, 2000

This review is from: Becoming a Woman of Purpose: A Bible Study (Paperback)

Whether in a study group or on your own, this book offers an excellent way to explore the scriptures and learn more about God's purpose for our lives. Becoming a Woman of Purpose includes wonderful lessons on both His purpose for us and our purpose in response. The quotes in this are incredible! Very deep, thought provoking and inspiring. This bible study is great for deeping your understanding of God and your relationship with Him. This was the first bible study I've done of Cynthia Heald's, but it won't be the last!

3.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Bible Study ..... but......, May 9, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Becoming a Woman of Purpose: A Bible Study (Paperback)

This is an excellent Bible study. It has helped me grow in faith & to better understand God's purpose for my life. My only complaint (the reason I gave it a 3 star rating instead of 5 stars) is that the author's reflections at the end of each week's study give an example of the author's 'trials & sufferings' throughout her life. Unfortunately, these examples are so insignificant most people would not even consider them as such but rather a hiccup in life's journey. It would be better to have left them out all together as women who have had 'real' trial such as miscarriage, death of husband &/or children, chronic illnesses etc find her 'trials' irritating & they distract from God's message. I recommend this Bible study but don't bother reading the author's reflections!!!
