In a wonderful blend of clear biblical truths and winsome personal stories, Donna Jones weaves a delightfully engaging encounter with our living Lord. The well-balanced blend of Donna’s wisdom and investigative biblical studies provides a wonderful journey for any woman who would like to get to know God—and it is a powerful refresher for any woman who would like to deepen and enrich her faith.
