Book excerpt: This zany, new study from God's Word, broken into two six-week sessions, will help equip women of all ages to be the women, wives, and moms they were intended to be. Author Brenda Lancaster invites women to take a break from their "zoo" of a life and learn how to apply godly truths in a practical manner. Lancaster's study encourages daily Bible reading, thought-provoking questions and insight into scripture written specifically for women. The daily action assignments guarantee you will not be bored! For the past 19 years, Lancaster has been sharing the lessons God has taught her as she struggled to be the woman God wanted her to be. As a member of Life Community Church (formerly known as Hunter Hills Baptist Church) she has served with enthusiasm as Bible Study coordinator, Sunday School Teacher, and a variety of leadership positions in Ladies Ministry. After answering God's specific call on her life, she founded ZooKeepers Ministries in 2002, a Titus 2 based ministry dedicated to teaching and ministering to young women. She also partners and teaches with Life Renewal Ministries and Center Cross Creative Ministries Conferences in the area of leadership and discipleship training. She is a graduate of the Proverbs 31 Ministries' 2003 She Speaks, speakers and writers conference. Since 1999 Brenda has been guest speaker for various ladies conferences, retreats, and special events. As Brenda Lancaster's pastor and friend it gives me great joy to recommend Brenda as a gifted writer, creative teacher, and captivating speaker who conveys truth, forged in the fires of every day life in a humorous, relevant, and memorable way. I've known Brenda for many years and found her to be a good steward ofall God has given her, a faithful servant who is determined to build God's Kingdom, and a serious soul winner, sharing her faith and leading many into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Brenda is an active, faithful member of Life Community Church. God has given her a unique and very effective Bible study that was not only offered here, but was one of the most effective, life-changing Bible studies our ladies have experienced in some time. Not only was there enthusiasm, excitement, and a record attendance, but numerous testimonies of the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. Brenda has encouraged, inspired, and mentored many young ladies in our church family through small group Bible studies, seminars, and various ladies ministries. I highly recommend Brenda and the ministry God has given her. She will honor our Lord and build His Kingdom. --Jake Thornhill, Jr. Senior Pastor Life Community Church Greensboro, NC "Brenda Lancaster has produced some powerful, lucid, and remarkable insightful material for families and women in particular. Her teachings are biblical, relevant, and desperately needed in today's families. Not only should every woman, mother, husband, and father study Brenda's material, but so should every pastor. A pastor's ministry would be far richer if he preached the content of these study guides to his people. This teaching on the family and womanhood is not like so much on the market today. This is not a gushy mess of sentimental fluffy filler. It is solid biblical meat with spiritual depth. It is some of the best material on the subject I have seen in over forty years of ministry." --Dr Michael K. Moore Founder - Life Renewal Ministries, Inc. Kure Beach, NC
