Woman Thou Art Loosed!: Healing the Wounds of the Past by T. D. Jakes     224 pages

In this book, T. D. Jakes addresses his teaching on the biblical scriptures telling of Jesus' encounters with the woman who had been healed by touching the hem of his cloak, the woman at the well, Mary Magdalene, the woman caught in the act of adultery, Tamar whose brother raped her, and more biblical scripture dealing with women who were dealing with past traumas and how God can help them to overcome and put past hurts behind them.    He addresses how to deal with low self-esteem, self-hatred, tragedy, disappointments then shows how regardless of what a woman has gone through in her past he offers hope and healing and how to achieve deliverance from past or present abuse and shows how God can make a way.    Good book,   I recommend this one to teenagers on up.
