T.D. Jakes has gone directly to the soul of women in WOMAN THOU ART LOOSED!
In what can only be described as a spiritual love sonnet to women, Jakes
speaks to all of the hurt and pain that has been experienced by women since
the beginning of time. Using taut Biblical examples like Sara, Eve, and
Esther, Jakes ministers to women in a way that convinces you that divine
intervention was in play when he penned these words.

WOMAN THOU ART LOOSED! delves into women's roles as ordained by God and how
often these roles have become confused due to old hurts, pain, and abuse. As
Jakes covers a plethora of issues including incest, premarital sex, rape, and
promiscuity, he speaks directly to the reader. You often feel you are sitting
in the room with him as he discusses these topics and the biblical insight
into his views. He prays with you as you read and he encourages every woman
to reach for her individual greatness in God.

I have read this book twice and both times I was in very different places in
my life. Each reading brought me a very different and personal message.
Jakes describes the stages of life within the text and I found myself easily
in his metaphor. I was so moved by his words that I dismissed my reading of
the book for a second time as coincidence and acknowledged it as the "God-
incidence" that it certainly was.

WOMAN THOU ART LOOSED! is a book that should be on every woman's nightstand
because no matter what you are experiencing, Jakes has a message for you time
and time again.

T.D. JAKES HAS A WAY OF MAKING YOU TAKE A STEP BACK AND LOOK AT THE WAY YOU CARRY YOURSELF AS A WOMAN. THIS BOOK SPEAKS TO THE WOMEN WHO HAVE BEEN ABUSED MENTALLY, PHYSICALLY OR SEXUALLY. IT FORCES WOMEN WHO USE MONEY, MEN AND THEIR BODIES AS A WAY TO GAIN SELF-ESTEEM, RESPECT, OR LOVE. THE BOOK POINTED OUT THAT SOME OF US WHO HAVE BEEN USED SEXUALLY AND DISCARDED,UNKNOWINGLY SEND OUT VIBES THAT SAY TO UNSAVED MEN "I'M DESPERATE, ABUSED AND LONELY. I'LL TOLERATE ANYTHING TO BE LOVED." THAT'S WHY SOME OF US KEEP MEETING THE SAME TYPE OF MEN. SO NO, ALL MEN ARE NOT DOGS. SOME OF US JUST HAVEN'T LEARNED TO LOVE OURSELVES ENOUGH AND TRUST GOD TO BLESS US WITH OUR HEARTS DESIRES. I RECOMMEND THIS TO ANY WOMAN WHO IS TIRED, READY TO TAKE OUT THE TRASH(E.G. BAGGAGE FROM THE PAST, UNSAVED MEN, ETC.), AND READY TO START HER NEW LIFE IN CHRIST.

After reading this book,I was totally convinced that T. D. Jakes is annointed and has been prophetically impressed upon by God to reach "women" in a manner in which no other man has done thus far. I would be remiss if I did not give hommage to Bishop Jakes for having the divine wisdom and indepth conscienceness to caringly touch those secret places of a womans' psyche that only God himself knows about. This book transcends all barriers such as ethnicity and cultural backgrounds. When it comes down to facts, women are women, and many of us are faced with similar challenges throughout life. I would recommend this book to every woman! It is healing, and powerful. Though "Woman Thou Art Loosed" will often bring tears to your eyes, those tears will inevitably be the water which surfaces the pain and washes it away. After reading this magnificant work by Bishop T. D. Jakes, I believe any woman would be on her way to recovery from whatever hinders her spiritually, physically or emotionally. I, personally, thank God Bishop Jakes!

In this book, T. D. Jakes speaks to every woman and more especially those who are dealing with the depressing results of abuse (physical, emotional, verbal and spiritual) and battery. I recommend this book to all women, for as he notes, many women will not admit to have ever "been there". This book will help you to restore your spiritual feet and a positive self-image!

I have read this book three times. The first time I read it, I had just come home from the a mental hospital following a suicide attempt. My husband left me for another woman following 17 years of marriage. I was at a complete loss. A friend of mine recommended Woman Thou Art Loosed and I read it in one day. I couldn't put it down. It was like this book had been written for me because Bishop Jakes knew me personally and could feel my pain. Once my mind was clear, I realized that Jesus knew me personally, knew my pain and wanted me to come back home. HE wanted to be the man in my life. I needed no other. To make a long story short, I read the book, renewed my faith, embraced My Lord and life, picked myself up, dusted myself and here I am three years later, loving My Lord, loving life and proud that I AM the Daughter of A King. Give God the Praise!!!

I just finished reading this book about 5 minutes ago and, even though it is aimed at women, men should read it too. Why? Because it can give men a better understanding on women's attitudes, perspectives, moods, and over all, spiritual warfare. It is a well written book and is anointed by the Holy Spirit of God. I recommend this book for women which are still bound by the past and cannot see beyond today. This book will encourage you to be the woman God wants you to be. It is great for counselors, widows, single women, and women which have been sexually raped and molested. I am planning to buy two copies of this book to give to two wonderful people I know that can get something good out of it. Buy it and read it, you won't be disappointed. Woman, Thou Art Loose!

I often asked the question, how could a man have such an understanding and so much insight to what many women have or may currently be experiencing in their lives. This book is a must read for all women of any race and culture, because it ministers to the unresolved issues, hidden scars, offenses and to the depths of our souls. This is a starting process to bring up and out all those old things to allow them to pass away.

"Woman Thou Art Loosed," was truly a blessing to my soul and mind. It was a book which had such a profound annointing on it; you could fill the power come through the pages. Bishop T.D. Jakes is to be commended for such an enlightening interpretation of God's holy divine Word. Thank you for allowing God to use you to touch young women like me.

No woman should miss out on the wonderful messages the Holy Spirit has for their healing and encouragement. Bishop Jakes certainly ministers to hurting woman through the power of the Holy Spirit in this book. Most women that read it feel that God is speaking directly to them--and He is! The Love and Mercy of God are evident in each and every word delivered by Bishop Jakes in this vital spiritual work. The wounds are exposed, "oil" is applied by the minsitry of God's love, and healing ultimately takes place. God is a good God and through this book, I truly realized how special women are to Him. Although society does not always see women in a positive light, this book will be a refreshing and liberating message to women all over the world, confirming to us that we are precious to God and He cares about how we feel. Don't miss this book, it will set you free!

How a person can overcome the pitfalls that come to you, in life, on a day to day basis. Bishop Jakes is remarkable in helping women to, "Let Go and Let God".
