What People are Saying About . . . .“It’s Not About You—It’s About God”

Through practical illustrations women will identify with the struggle of allowing God to operate on their lives. Although women may say “Ouch” while Rebecca is used as an instrument in the hand of God to perform much-needed surgery on deep heart issues, they will also say “Thank God” as she applies the balm of Gilead.

—Sabrina D. Black, Author of Can Two Walk Together?,

Prone to Wander, and HELP! For Your Leadership

I finished reading It’s Not About You—It’s About God, and my heart and soul have been revived. I wholeheartedly endorse this wonderful book that will encourage Christians to believe God more and understand that the battle is not ours but the Lord’s. When we fully realize this, we can stop trying to order our own steps and allow the Lord to do his work. Every Christian woman needs this book in her hands to read and implement these truths in her life.

—Jeanne L. Johnson, Vice President, United Conference for Women

Could Christians be selfish, self-absorbed and self-centered? But we love God and sing hymns like “I Surrender All.” Surely we don’t have the me-disease?

Popular conference speaker and best-selling author of Chosen Vessels, Rebecca Florence Osaigbovo (www.cvmi.org) challenges women, especially “‘strong black women,” to get God’s perspective on life. This radical book is not a “feel good” message but an in-your-face book that burns up any narcissism in your soul. She motivates women to know the beauty and power of a totally surrendered life to Christ.

“When a strong black woman becomes a Christian, she has to lean on God,” writes Osaigbovo. “She has to see strength from a different perspective ... God is going to use the woman who delights in her weakness but walks in the strength of the Lord and the power of His might. It's really about God.”

This book will surely be the talk of every urban beauty shop—especially for those women who find themselves looking in the mirror and getting a revelation that “it’s not about me—but up to me.” Osaigbovo inspires women to take the focus off themselves and become powerful partners with God.
