This easy-to-read book and accompanying workbook provides a fresh and intriguing look on a topic that has perplexed women for years.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write “Women Stop the Chase: Let God’s Man Find You (Proverbs 18:22)”?

Dr. Mary M. Gillam: The inspiration for me to write “Women Stop the Chase” primarily originated from my own journey to understand God’s plan for relationships.
