IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU
BY Rebecca Florence Osaigbovo / InterVarsity Press, ISBN 0-8308-2367-0

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. 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," writes Osaigbovo.
This book will surely be the talk of every urban beauty shop - especially
to 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
focus off themselves and become powerful partners with God.
