Me, Myself & Lies - Bible Study Book: A Thought Closet Makeover

by Jennifer Rothschild

Book Overview

Words are powerful. Especially the words women speak to themselves. All too often, what they say to themselves when they lie in bed at night or look in the mirror in the morning is not even close to the words God wants them to speak to their souls. This 7-session study will encourage you to clean out the junk in your mind and replace hidden negative thoughts with positive truths from God's Word.

Customer Reviews

Be careful when purchasing "acceptable"

I enjoyed this study 10+ years ago when I first started it and I am enjoying it again as I work through it with new friends. I was, however, a little disappointed with my purchase of a previously owned copy of the workbook. I now know that an "acceptable" book "can include considerable notes--in pen or highlighter--but the notes cannot obscure the text." I didn't realize this and was disappointed that the workbook I ordered was pretty much filled out COMPLETELY! Perhaps a "good" copy would've been better, but at the time I ordered, there were no "good" or "very good" copies available. I will know for next time to avoid "acceptable" when it comes to workbooks.

Ouch

At first glance, this seems like a simple Bible study. However, as you work through the chapters and are forced to think about what you think about...all I can say is OUCH. Life changing, enlightening, painful and joyous. I highly recommend the study, but only if you are prepared to be honest with yourself !

Wonderful Bible Study for any Woman!

This was one of the best Bible studies I've ever done. What a great subject and so needed in the church today...honesty from Rothschild and her insight is very encouraging, while tackling a tough subject that is very difficult for many of us to think about. I have struggled with body image issues especially and this Bible study was very helpful. I think that every woman would benefit from this study!

Every woman should read this book.

We women are so guilty of "not thinking about what we're thinking about." This book helped me to focus on the frequently destructive thoughts rambling around in my mind--and to replace those thoughts with God's truth. I am so thankful I went through this workbook with a study group from my church. It has changed me for the better. "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he."

Discovery of Self and Opportunity to Change the Way You Think

This book captured my attention when it was selected by Beth Moore for the 2009 Summer Bible Study. I purchased seven copies and found some friends to join me in the study. Since I also wrote a blog about the book [...] I found myself going deeper into my faith and inside my own thought closet. The study began with a gentle "spring cleaning" of my thoughts and ended with a "wardrobe makeover." I was shocked to learn about the thoughts that were driving my decisions and thoughts that were not centered around God. The book showed me the thoughts behind my lukewarm faith and gave the tools I needed to claim a burning faith for God. I recommend this book for women who feel something is wrong in their lives, but cannot center on the root of their problems. The book is a discovery of self and a transformation towards faith centered thinking. Buy it today and refresh your thought closet.
