Lazarus Awakening

Finding Your Place in the Heart of God

Getting God’s Love from Our Heads to Our Hearts

We all know Jesus loved Mary – look how she worshiped. And we can understand why He loved Martha – after all, look how she served. But what about those of us who don’t know where we fit in the heart of God?

For many of us, moving the truth of God’s love from our heads to our hearts is a lifelong process. As we consider our inadequacies or grieve our shattered dreams, we find it difficult to believe that God cares for us personally.

In this life-giving book, Joanna Weaver shows you how to embrace the truth that Jesus loves you apart from anything you accomplish, apart from anything you bring. Just as He called Lazarus forth to new life, Jesus wants to free you to live fully in the light of His love, unbound from the graveclothes of fear, regret, and self-condemnation.

Combining unforgettable real-life illustrations with unexpected biblical insights, Lazarus Awakening invites you to experience a spiritual resurrection that will forever change your understanding of what it means to be the one Jesus loves.

“The thoughts that Joanna has put into this book is profound. I highly recommend this book for women who are in need of some 'awakening.' I imagine we all could use some of that whether we realize it or not!”

“Joanna personalizes Lazarus story beautifully...thoughtfully...spiritually. Just as Lazarus was instructed to "arise and go forth", this too is the message for us in this book. Truly this is a must read for any one who is seeking the fullness of God in their life!!”

“We have lived far too long in caves we do not belong. You will enjoy every moment as God reveals the areas of your life where you have been sleeping for far too long. You will find yourself awake and keenly aware of the realization God has been calling out to you, from the beginning of time, and even in your darkest hour.”

“I’ve heard the Lazarus story a hundred times... was pretty sure I'd already know what to expect. WRONG WRONG WRONG. I love how you took every aspect of this Biblical situation and broke it into pieces and concepts of walking out our faith. I can hear God's voice speaking through the words on the pages and I have a zest and new hunger for the scriptures and am bent on getting them in my heart.”

“Lazarus Awakening was well worth the wait! On the first read through, your words, penned straight from God's heart, have changed my life. I can't wait to start the study with "my girls" and go deeper with the material. Thank you for your obedience and openness to lead women closer to the heart of God.”

“I just finished leading a group of ladies on the Lazarus Awakening book. Wow!! I did not know how you could do a whole Bible Study on Lazarus, but after the first chapter, I knew this was the book for our group! They loved it and were so blessed.”

“We have done all three of your books as Bible studies. But I have to tell you: while they are very, very good, Lazarus Awakening was just profound. I cried, they cried, I can’t begin to tell you the places you touched in our hearts. Thank you so very much.”

“I absolutely was captivated by the attention to detail and how the author seems to really get into the minds of the characters. So often, I find myself clawing through a book longing for some treasure. There was no clawing here. The treasures were plenty. Mrs. Weaver's insights are inspiring. She opened my mind to new ways of thinking.”

“I read many books searching for something that can flow between my ministries of women, high school, and middle school girls. There is rarely such a book that can be discussed in all three arenas ... but Lazarus Awakening by Joanna Weaver is a rare breed. It is a necessity for any woman (or man) of any age.”

“Our Bible study group has been meeting together for four years now. A while back, we did a study with Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World and loved it. Then we read Having a Mary Spirit and decided it was our favorite. We just finished Lazarus Awakening and we all agreed it was our all-time favorite. We have all been Christians for many, many years and each one of your books revealed God to each of us in ways we hadn't considered.”

“I’ve loved Joanna Weaver since I read her first book, Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World. Her books are well crafted, enjoyable to read, able to change your life ... and a boatload of fun to teach! Her new release takes what little information we have about the brother of Mary and Martha and expounds upon it brilliantly… Reading Lazarus Awakening stirred up a renewed desire to engage God's Word and to teach it to others. I've enjoyed the privilege of teaching from each of Joanna's previous books and cannot wait to present the material in this one!”

“I began to peel off my own grave clothes, chapter by chapter. The words on the pages seemed to breathe life into me at a time in my own that I was DESPERATE for resurrection!”

“I just finished Lazarus Awakening. I'm blessed again. I've laughed, wept, and underlined my way through all the wonderful chapters and will now start back on chapter one and highlight and make more notes and read the book again. It's fresh and deep and moving and honest. I'm changed and blessed. May the Lord fill your heart with joy and blessings for the work and time you put into this book.”

“Between the tears and laughter, my healing of the hurt and sorrow I was experiencing came to an absolute end! The revelatory words on every page were not a Band-Aid, but sutures stitching up an open wound that needed healing. I'm telling everyone your book is a MUST read!”

“I can't begin to tell you how much your books have helped me get closer to Jesus and to make him a part of my life. I have always been afraid of God, and as a sinner I always felt I could never be worthy of God's love. You changed my way of thinking. God isn't there waiting to beat me over the head with a bat every time I make a mistake. He's just THERE ... whenever I need Him ... Your books made this easy to understand and even easier to apply to my daily life. Thank you so much for all you've done for me.”

“As I read Weaver's book, I found myself discovering my own new insights growing from hers. When you find a book that can do that, you've found a treasure. I highly recommend this book, and I am looking forward to reading it again, this time more slowly, so I can take my time to reflect more deeply on the truth of God's love.”

“While I expected Lazarus Awakening to be a good read, since I enjoyed Weaver’s first book in the series, Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World, I didn’t expect it to rock me the way it did and I didn’t know I was living among the dead. Fortunately, Weaver doesn’t just reveal only problems, but offers guidance with insightful chapter inserts, information on additional resources, and even a well-developed small group Bible study. Honestly, I loved Lazarus Awakening, and will continue to refer to it as I fight against my graveyard living.”

“Joanna has a way of saying very profound things in a very simple way. Ways that can really reach the heart and 'stick.'' If you are struggling with believing that God TRULY, DEEPLY loves YOU ... this book is a must read. Sometimes it's easy for us to tell someone about how much God loves them, but then deep inside we don't feel like we are worth enough for that same love. This book helps throw that garbage thinking out the door!”
