Review title: Only condemnation!
Product review: As the leader of a small group, this study was one of the toughest to facilitate. The women assigned to my group perservered to the end but decidely believed this was, at times, condemning and without hope. It was extremely legalistic and the checklists did not show us anything but failure. Of course, we need to look at ourselves and where we need work but the list never led us to the hope in Christ and how we can be healed and whole because he gave his life for us! The stories were unrealistic and the family's responses were even more unrealistic. The chapter on sexual abuse was so difficult for some of us as she asked those abused to go to their abusers to forgive them for the negative feelings they had toward them. Really? When you feel in your spirit that the study is not of our Lord, we should stop it! I'm sure this author had good intentions but there was NO revival in our groups of over 70 people!
