Amazon.com Review T.D. Jakes's insights and expressions are balm for every woman's soul. As he explains so compassionately, we have lost sight of "the lady," and it is a loss that continues to buffet women and misdirect men. Jakes eschews condemnation and exposes the lies that have cloaked women in sorrow, helping women to stand in the beauty, strength, and confidence God intended. Bishop Jakes, church founder, pastor, and author of numerous books, including the bestselling Woman, Thou Art Loosed!, structures this book in three parts. In the first, he gently takes the hand of every woman who has been ill-used, crippled in the innermost being, and shows her what is truly beautiful about the feminine. In part two, he opens the door for communication between husband and wife, lover and friend. Part three brings alive the passion of the Lord for women, this most exquisite of His creations. Much has been lost. Weep with Bishop Jakes over the pain to which women have succumbed. But loss is not forever. In fact, any woman reading this book will likely feel something emerge within her, something long forgotten but something that rings of truth. --Ann Weinheimer
Product Description The phenomenal bestseller. At last, in trade paperback...
Here is the book that brought Bishop T.D. Jakes to the forefront of America's bestselling Christian authors. Selling over half a million copies in hardcover alone, The Lady, Her Lover, and Her Lord is as provocative as it is profound--a truly inspiring volume that shows today's women how to improve their relationships with their men, their God, and themselves. In a society that asks women to be perfect, sweet, sexy, submissive, and pristine, T.D. Jakes offers a spiritual path that cuts through the mixed messages and leads women toward the true self God wants them to be: strong, loving, and real.
"Bishop T.D. Jakes is a breath of fresh air....Take it from me, the material within this book does make a difference." --Natalie Cole
"He demonstrates an unusual ability to inspire, uplift, teach, and comfort. An eloquent wordsmith...[he] writes with an abundance of memorable metaphors and yet speaks to women's hearts in practical, often humorous terms....This masterful preacher offers all women sound advice and gentle, respectful encouragement." --Publishers Weekly

I don't understand September 25, 2008 I read this book and I was not impressed. It seemed very weak on spiritual "meat". Not to mention, it was not well written. It seemed to jump around quite a bit.
If you are new to the faith, the book may be of use. If you are a more seasoned sister or brother, you will probably put the book back on Amazon.
Excellent August 11, 2008 Wonderful book...it's a must read for anyone trying to obtain an intimate relationship with God, themselves, and their significant other!!!
The Lady August 12, 2007 Awesome Book! A must read for those of us searching for a deeper relationship with our Savior! Highly Recommended!!!!
Amazingly Insightful April 4, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
T.D Jakes has written a book that every woman should read. Each page gives tremendous insights into the needs of a woman. Quite surprising to me, was that it was written by a man. I believe though that he was inspired by God - the Creator of women. I have bought several copies to give to women I minister to from prison. There are golden nuggets within each page which will bring insight, love and healing to the reader. It's a good read for men, but may be a bit hard to understand all the emotion that is involved within it's pages. I cried often and when I finished the book, I felt loved by God.
Good book for any woman January 11, 2007 This was a really good, easy-reading book. It's surprisingly insightful being written by a man. It's a book that speaks to the single woman hoping for a mate, as well as the married woman. I gives insight on how to understand how men think and feel and what they need, as well as how women feel. It challenges us to understand why we're have broken hearts and disappointments and how to become more whole.
