I love this book so much. I am not a huge reader and I read this book in two days. I know you said not to do that in the book, but I read it quickly so that I can order more and give it to my other friends. I hope to re-read it soon. I want to send copies even to my guy friends so they can better understand our gifts and see how they get twisted.
I have been dying to read the writings of Alice von Hildebrand, JPII writings on women, St. Edith Stein, S.O.G Chiara Corbello, etc. There is too much awesomeness for me to read and understand. I often feel too stupid or too confused when I read JPII's works. And who has all the time to read all this other wonderful stuff?
With the attack on the family, maculinity, and femininity, this book wonderfully, clearly, and practically explains what the Church teaches and what the Church does NOT teach. Lisa does a FABULOUS job with the discussion questions at the end of the chapter, integrating the lives of the saints, and showing us how our gifts get twisted. This is the perfect gift for mothers day, a birthday, confirmation, graduation, and any other significant milestone for a precious lady in your life.
This book is a tremendous blessing and is the answer to many prayers and desires of my heart. Lisa, I personally thank you for this wonderfully written contribution you have made.
