Focusing on the Bible’s way of interacting with others and obeying Scripture, mainly (referencing Jesus’ way), the author blends in her work selective quotes, philosophies/teachings, etc., of famous individuals such as: John Paul II, Faustina (A Polish Catholic Saint) and takes much from insights from Virginia Satir, her book speaks to the cultural and personal identity of a female, offering that respect and love is what is needed in both genders, male and female.

The concept was deep and beautiful
“Liberating Inner Eve: A Reflective Journey for Women” by Bozena Zawisz was such a sensible read. The author was able to bring out her psychological insights by incorporating biblical aspects at the same time. For me, this book is really helpful especially to the women who need more than psychological guidance. The fact that the book also focused on the spiritual teachings makes this book a worthwhile read.
I found the writing so engaging that it pulled me word for word, paragraph by paragraph. I also loved the fact that I can 100% relate to what the book teaches. And the fact that it also includes simple exercises to make me feel knowledgeable about the Bible teachings, it’s an overall amazing guidebook. I believe this book can really help women to literally liberate themselves. The concept was deep and beautiful and the prose was thoughtful. I would recommend this book in an instant!
