In the tradition of empowering spiritual writers such as Ilanya Vanzant, Bishop Vashti McKenzie offers women a Christian path to personal transformation. A groundbreaking preacher who, in 2000, became the first woman to serve as bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Bishop McKenzie is renowned for her eloquence and passion in the pulpit. Now she brings her inspirational message to readers through the biblical story of the meeting at the well between Jesus and the Samaritan woman. In twelve lessons, McKenzie interweaves the Samaritan woman's experiences with contemporary personal stories, Bible quotations, life-affirming sayings, and meditational activities. Through them she shows women that if they hold onto hope and listen for their moments of epiphany, they can accomplish anything.
This book is a fascinating study of the Samaritan woman at the well. Vashti McKenzi invites us to the well to have our own transformative experience with Jesus. No matter how we have messed up in our lives, Jesus will meet us at the well and transform us as He did the Samaritan woman. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book.
I'm reading "Journey to Wellness" but I couldn't find it on Good Reads. This is the closest that I could find so I'll be reviewing Journey to the Well based on what I read in Journey to Wellness. That's ok right?
This is a wonderful book for women recreating and or refinding themselves. It helped me form a closer spriritual connection with God and as a busy Mom how to work on making time and space for myself.
