Completely His: Loving Jesus Without Limits?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />Shannon EthridgeWaterBrook, Jun 2007, $15.99ISBN: 1400071100Using anecdotal incidents form her own life, Shannon Ethridge makes the case that God welcomes doubting Thomasina into his tent.She begins her assertion with the story of being a teen putting on lipstick while driving to school hitting a person walking on the road.That individual Marjorie Jarstfer died; her husband Gary asked if she was okay.Instead of loathing her, he tells her about his wife.He not only forgave her he and his family and their pastor informed Shannon that God forgave her too and that Marjorie was surely with Jesus forgiving her and wanting her to move on and make something of herself.Thus this sets the tone as Ms. Ethridge uses plenty of scripture and personal incidents to encourage hurting women that God is there for them even people like her who committed vehicular homicide and who became a sex sinner before she found her way to redemption.Well written, those who already appreciate Ms. Ethridge's powerful message will fully appreciate her latest Bridal Party inspirational(see COMPLETELY LOVED and COMPLETELY FORGIVEN); however, this doubting reviewer disbelieves those with damaged souls will soar to this motivating epiphany and make Jesus the passion of your life.Harriet Klausner
