by Marilyn Meberg

Women of Faith speaker, Marilyn Meberg, offersbold and straightforward insight and biblical teaching for the secret issues of women. A food addiction. That mistake in college. The petty bad habit. A relative we'd rather forget . . . Secrets come in all shapes and sizes, but we all have them. And nine times out of ten, we wish we didn't. Wrapped in layers-often years-of fear, secrets are not so easily discarded. In Tell Me Everything , Marilyn Meberg offers hope for anyone struggling to fi nd freedom in a world that loves living in the dark. With a master's degree in counseling psychology, she understands how we tie ourselves up in knots. As a Christian and Bible teacher, she knows how we can escape the lies that keep us bound. With wit and wisdom, Marilyn offers advice, examples, and encouragement that will engage the mind and help unburden the heart. What would it take for you to share your deepest secrets? To be completely honest? "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."-1 Peter 5:7 How good would it feel to just let it all out-no fear, no condemnation? "Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."-Romans 8:1 Is there anyone you can trust that much? "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me."-John 14:1 And what would happen if you did open up? "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."-Matthew 11:28

This book was a bony chicken. You know the phrase keep the meat, throw out the bones? Well this one had some big bones. I actually tossed the book when I was done to keep others from some of the pop-psych garbage.
So there was some good info and easy to read but not recommended.

Marilyn Meberg is my favorite Women of Faith speaker. Her way of weaving the gospel into every day stories is delightful. Her biblical teaching is clear & concise. Her books are a pleasure to read, uplifting to the soul, encouraging for all & refreshingly non-judgmental with biblical truth spoken very genuinely...she really cares about your relationship with Christ. Will keep this book & read thru it again & again.

It's not bad; I've just read so many better books on the topics she covers. Try Shame Interrupted by Edward Welch.

Heard Marilyn at "Women of Faith" years ago, her books are really good on touching on some hard issues in life.

Just what I needed!

This book was a gift from God. Every chapter addressed something I needed to hear. Such wise and caring words.

I have read a few of Marilyn's books before, and, as she mentions in the beginning, much of this book is a compilation of her other writing...I ended up skimming a lot because it was familiar material...but still good stuff.

I was interested in the topic discussion of secrets as it related to thoughts, self-talk, and homelessness of self.
