Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Helps Women experience growth and become safe, wise, compassionate, and grace-giving friends, mentors, and encouragers. Excellent 14-week Study Guide also available.

From the Back Cover
In today's broken world, women are longing for warm relationships. This book is designed to help us avoid being miserable comforters-like Job's friends-and, instead, become "God with skin on" to others. Paul told Titus to train women so that they, in turn, could train others. Preparing women before they connect with one another leads to more supportive, grace-giving relationships. Verna equips women to minister to others by first helping us to:

* Recognize it's right to take care of ourselves
* Identify and correct twisted thinking
* Learn how to draw appropriate boundaries
* Take steps to resolve conflicts
* Know how to listen and ask helpful questions
* Learn to communicate understanding

5.0 out of 5 stars Women Connecting With Women, April 26, 2004

By	Carol L Hargan (Lancaster, PA) - See all my reviews

I just finished a 14 week study of this book along with a group of friends. We all felt we experienced much personal growth as a result of reading this book. We also bonded together as a group & spent time sharing helpful life experiences with one another. In short, I think we connected with one another while learning from the book how to set boundaries, how to be a people helper, how to nourish ourselves as well as others in our lives, how to resolve conflicts in a way that benefits all involved. The book offered very practical, hands on advice on ways to enrich and improve your life, thereby enriching and improving the lives of others you have contact with. The book is also thought-provoking and causes you to search your soul for answers.
This book teaches you how to have relationship skills.
