Pray in a new and creative way this Lent by joining the women of WINE: Women In the New Evangelization on a journey through Christ's passion, death, and resurrection. What if you could have been a witness to the events of the last days of Jesus’ life—walking with him as he entered Jerusalem, observing his crucifixion, and embracing him on Easter?

Walk in Her Sandals, edited by popular Catholic author and speaker Kelly M. Wahlquist, takes you deeper into your relationship with Jesus by helping you relate to him in a profoundly intimate way. Looking at six universal gifts of women through the eyes of women in the gospels, the book guides you on a prayerful and creative journey through the days of Holy Week, Easter, and Pentecost.

As you imagine the experience of the women who met Jesus, you will discover how each of them expressed one of six, distinctive, feminine gifts identified in the writings of St. John Paul II. Through the eyes of an imagined woman who watched Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, you will understand how she conveyed the gift of receptivity. Through the hands of Veronica, who reached out to wipe the face of Jesus, you will discover how sensitivity is present and can grow in your own life. These gifts, along with generosity, prayer, maternity, and the Holy Spirit, come to life through the vivid portrayal of women who walked with Jesus. Their imagined stories are complemented by the real accounts of contemporary women who share their own stories of receiving and cultivating these gifts.

Walk in Her Sandals is a collaborative effort, edited by Wahlquist with contributions from twelve leading Catholic women writers, all of whom are associated with the organization she founded—WINE: Women In the New Evangelization. The contributors will help you break open the scripture, reflect upon it and apply it to your own life, and share those insights in a small-group setting through the use of questions and challenges. Each chapter unfolds in eight movements: A Moment to Ponder: Wahlquist sets the stage for the theme of that chapter.Entering the Scripture: Sarah Christmyer, codeveloper of The Great Adventure Catholic Bible Study, reveals the riches of the scripture that corresponds with the day, both in the biblical narrative and in the liturgical year.Walk in Her Sandals: Stephanie Landsem, author of the biblical fiction series The Living Water, draws you into the story and allows you to experience what it may have been like for women who lived and walked with Jesus.Unwrapping the Gift: Catholic author, speaker, and faith-formation leader Pat Gohn shows how each woman demonstrates a particular feminine gift and invites you to nurture that gift in yourself and understand anew the beauty of your dignity and vocation.Reflect on the Meaning: Writers including CatholicMom.com founder Lisa M. Hendey and popular media personality Teresa Tomeo offer insight, encouragement, and inspiration for your own journey through their personal stories.Lectio and Meditatio: A prayerful reading of the scripture and a guided meditation to draw you more deeply into an intimate relationship with Jesus.Questions for Group Discussion: Carol Younger, senior fellow at the St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology, offers a helpful tool to share your experience with other women.Walking in the New Evangelization: Wahlquist offers two ways to contribute to the New Evangelization—first by growing in your contemplative spiritual life and then by giving you practical suggestions to enhance your active spiritual life.Walk in Her Sandals will allow you to enter more fully into life in Christ by praying over his passion, death, and resurrection. It will help you experience a conversion of heart and recognize your own giftedness.

Title: Great Lenten Study Book for a Women's Bible Study
Review: This book was chosen for a Lenten study for the women's Bible study I am in. The feedback from the women was wonderful. They all have been enjoying the book, especially the fictional stories that bring them to the scenes of the Bible during those times. It is an easy read, well written and thought provoking. As a leader of this study I would say that the book is easily laid out and accompanied discussion questions, something I appreciate as you can dive right into it without any preparation. I have personally enjoyed this book. I really loved how the authors are all women and the book is for women. A great read for a group or solo.

Title: Unique and creative way to draw closer to Jesus during Lent
Review: I love reading through 1 or 2 devotional-style books during Lent and Advent. I chose this one as I liked the idea that it included a fictional account of the Holy Week. The book is written for women and we mostly observe Holy Week through the eyes of the women who accompanied Jesus.It's structured across 6 chapters covering different gifts for particular days: Receptivity (Palm Sunday), Generosity (Holy Thursday), Sensitivity (Good Friday), Prayer (Holy Saturday), Maternity (Easter Sunday) and the Gift of the Holy Spirit (Pentecost). Each day/chapter was addressed by each author which I enjoyed. Kelly Wahlquist gave us a Moment to Ponder, Sarah Christmyer dived into Scripture, Stephanie Landsem provided the fictional account, Pat Gohn unwrapped the gift being discussed, we got the opportunity to practice Lectio on the Scripture reference and there were some questions to consider and dive deeper personally at the end.I particularly enjoyed Stephanie's fictional account and the Lectio. I'm relatively new to the latter and this was a great way for me to learn more about and found picturing myself in the scene to be so revealing.I am not a Catholic and even though all the authors are and it is written for a Catholic audience there are many takeaways for all believers. However, I found many of the chapter ending questions not to be particularly relevant.This was a very useful way to observe Lent due to the multiple perspectives and the emphasis on Scripture.

Title: We all were pleased with the way it was written
Review: I purchased a number of copies of the book to give as gifts. A group of us met once a week during Lent to discuss the book. We all were pleased with the way it was written. All the authors gave their strength to each chapter. I have read it over again and will continue to do so. There is so much to get from it regardless of the season in which it is read. I would highly recommend this book for any time of the year reading.
