Wanna Know a Secret?

Pssst! Yes, you! Come closer. Want to know a secret? Have I got a terrific book for you!Hey, what am I doing? Let's shout this from the rooftops and share the good news. VickeyBanks has done a superb job of Sharing His Secrets in her wonderful new book about thewomen with whom Jesus shared His life and His most intimate moments. I smiled, I cried, Idreamed, I grew, all the while knowing that if they could get closer to Jesus then I could, too. The amazing thing is that I have repeatedly read these Biblical accounts; but this time, thanksto Banks's fresh insights, I read them with new and knowing eyes. My favorite story was aboutthe woman at the well. I had always thought that the Samaritan woman was satisfying Jesus'sphysical thirst. Banks made me realize that He also thirsted for her love. Amazing! Jesusthirsting for me. That insight alone has revolutionized my relationship with Him. Sharing HisSecrets will help shape your moments with Jesus to be the most intimate you have ever spent.And once you learn these secrets, you will likely reveal them to others. These are secrets yousimply must not keep! -Lynn D. Morrissey, author & speaker

Cherished by the Lord

I had often read about Jesus raising the son of the widow in Nain, but never through the lens of a call to compassion as Vickey Banks develops in her book, "Sharing His Secrets." If you feel nameless and unimportant in this big, wide world, you need Vickey's book as an affirmation that you are named and known to God. Her book draws spiritual lessons from the lives of ten who knew Jesus, including seven whose names are lost to history. They aren't lost, however, to the Lord, who cared for them genuinely in a time when women were second-class citizens. Despite the gap of 2,000 years between our lives and theirs, we share their needs: salvation, compassion, faith, intercession, forgiveness, friendship with God, ways to love God, spiritual warfare, and spiritual intimacy. Vickey mines the few verses devoted to each biography for lessons for today's woman. Her concluding prayers and "Getting Personal" application sessions will help anyone, or any group, embrace their truths.

Share!

I was recently asked if I would head up a small women's Bible study. Even though my time is limited these days, I said yes! Mainly because I had just read Vickey Bank's book, Sharing His Secrets...and I wanted to SHARE!!!Vickey Banks has done a marvelous job of sharing with her readers special insights from the women who knew and touched Jesus. And whom Jesus knew and touched.You won't regret reading this book!

Wonderful encouragement for today's busy women

This is not just another devotion book for women. Vickey has brought the stories of these biblical women to life in a way that will meet many needs for contemporary, busy women today. I learned something from each woman she wrote about that helped me deal with my own issues. Each example she wrote on seemed to meet me right where I am now. The bottom line is, no matter who you are or what you are dealing with, it is so encouraging to be reminded that God truly loves us as women and only wants His best for us. This book is exciting, and I found myself wanting to continue on until I finished the whole thing!

The heart of a woman who loves God. . .

I was instantly drawn in by the gentle life lessons Vickey Banks drew from women in the Bible. It's not a book of fluff, but rather a book full of parallels that spark your desire to know God more. Her writing is honest, and Vickey opens her heart to the reader, demonstrating the depth of her relationship with God. I planned to read only one chapter the first time I picked it up, but before I knew it I had read halfway through the book. The questions at the end of each chapter caused me to stop and examine my heart. This is a wonderful book to simply read, to study, or to share with women of all ages in a Bible group setting.
