I have learned many lessons through studying the women of the Bible and the issues which they experienced. Their stories have inspired me to "go on" in spite of the curves life has thrown my way. It is my hope that every reader of Women With Issues will grasp that message and decide to press through as did our heroine from Mark 5. Negative situations such as divorce, abuse or bad breaks can be one's demise. It is my belief, however, that Jesus is still passing by, ready to assist the desperate soul who has tried everything, but has only gotten worse. He does not mind being your last resort. He is just waiting for you to reach out and touch Him in faith. Jesus is your answer regardless of your issue. Lean upon Him as I have and you will find restoration, healing and victory over any issue, great or small. "Many times I have jokingly said to Ann Rogers, "You could write a book". She has written three others which I cherish, but Women with Issues is an expression of her inner self, her life and her triumphs, which my family and I have been a part of for over twenty-five years. Ann is transparent and steadfast in her commitments and standards and she lives her message for all to see. This book will inspire all who read it to cope, persevere and conquer any issue". James M.
