LONGWOOD, FL-Based on the account of "the woman at the well" found in John 4, author Georgia Wilkerson's Xulon Press release, Leave Your Water Jar (Breaking the Bondage of Past Sins) ($13.99, paperback, 978-1-60477-852-6), is a refreshing look at what it means to leave your "water jar" and move forward for the glory of God with new joy, peace, and a love for life in our newfound relationship in Christ. This gutsy book pulls no punches; Wilkerson is honest and transparent concerning her own struggles with past sins and failures. Says the author, "Christians today seem unable to effectively take the gospel to the world. I believe this is due to the fact that, in general, we are struggling with many of the same sins as the people we're trying to reach. More than ever, Christians are struggling with relationships, depression, anger, etc. Much of this turmoil is because we have past issues that we have been unwilling to deal with. This book is newsworthy because it contains key elements necessary for the restoration of God's church." Haunted by past sins and failures for many years, Wilkerson experienced major depression and anxiety. While writing a ladies' Bible study on John 4, God spoke to her concerning this woman, her water jar, and her freedom. "I noticed the Scripture states she left her water jar, but never records she picked it up again," the author says. "Dealing with unresolved issues of my past, I determined to leave my water jar.""
