The Well-Watered Woman: Rooted in Truth, Growing in Grace, Flourishing in Faith

I just started reading this recently and I'm really enjoying it. It's written in a fashion that is so easy to understand and speaks directly to the heart – – especially to those of us who have a past and are having a hard time with guilt and/or anxiety. Full of biblical references to reassure us that God meets us where we are, that there is hope in our Savior, and He sees us.

Such an inspiring book!! I love she tells things from her perspective & experiences but has a way of tying it in to my own life to make it relatable. Each chapter is not too lengthy but enough to get a full message out of it. Good, Christian values and tie everything back to gods word

I have only read the introduction and the first few pages of the first chapter and it is one of my very best purchases. The articulation is astounding and u can feel the Holy Spirit speaking from its pages. A definite must buy.

*I received an early digital copy of the book via Tyndale, Netgalley & the launch team! Thank you!What a life-giving, beautiful read! I pre-ordered this book as soon as Gretchen announced it on social media last year, and joined the launch team as soon as sign ups were ready. I've been following Gretchen's ministry since 2014 (at least) when it was called Life Lived Beautifully, as an Etsy shop. I've been reading her words & buying and using her bible studies and journals for so long! Being an avid reader myself, imagine how excited I was when I heard about her book coming out!! Here's a soundbite of what's included: Gretchen offers tangible tools to know Jesus more and live a life that thoroughly enjoys him, seeks him, and follows him to freedom. "Rooted in truth, growing in grace, flourishing in faith." When reading it... wow, it's such a beautiful book, with the illustrations and the way it is organized. I love how her teaching videos and worksheets for preorder bonuses go even further in depth with the concept. It is an easy, conversational read and is a perfect book for a newer Christian or one who simply needs a reminder of how rich the gospel of Jesus is. Including extensive references and scripture references, there is a lot of meat in here. By discussing at length the well of fullness, the word of freedom, and the way of fruitfulness, while exploring her own struggles and story, and a boatload of scripture references, Gretchen offers women tools to know Jesus more and live a life beautifully for Him! I especially loved when she talked of spiritual disciplines as that is such an important part of our faith and walk. (I'll come back to add to this later! There's so much more I can say! So grateful for you, Gretchen!)

Love love love! I even cried a little bit this is the first book I read and finished since high school. Easy great read lots of scripture reference. Hope the author makes some more books!

I finished this in record time! It really resonated with where I was and have been in my walk with Jesus. I just love the gardening imagery as someone who loves to garden myself. I highly recommend this. In fact, after finishing it I gifted a new copy to my mother who also loves it.

Awesome Read!

Posting under my husbands account (since we share it):“The Well-Watered woman isn’t a perfect woman, but she knows the one who is perfect — the Gardener who never fails. She isn’t always “okay” and she isn’t always “fine,” but she roots herself in the unrelenting hope of the gospel.”Ladies, you NEED this book!And you might want to add a pack of highlighters to your cart, because you’re gonna need them too!Or if you’re like me, order two, so you can mark one up and keep the other in pristine condition. 😅I’ve had the privilege of reading an advanced copy of the book before it’s out, and I can’t get enough. Gretchen has really made the Word come alive, and made me realize the rotten roots that I’ve been letting grow. I feel like I’ve been sitting across the table, having coffee with one of my great friends! Gretchen has a passion for encouraging woman to love Jesus deeply and communicate on a daily basis with Him. I’ve been in a season of life, where I felt like God wasn’t listening to me, and this book reassured me that He is and He knows my hurt. I’ve been eager to dive back into the Word now!I’ve been blown away by the beauty of this book (inside and out), and the amazing truth that Gretchen has poured out onto the pages.This book has been a breath of fresh in air, in knowing I’m not alone in my struggles. That other woman have battled the same thoughts as me. And that Jesus understands my pain and frustrations, even when I don’t believe so.
