An unparalleled feast of rich truth, direly needed wisdom, and the most divine servings of grace. Every page sparkles not only with wit and warmth but with Liz s signature, unmatched insights. Liz is the comforting, courage-giving friend every woman prays for. There s no voice like Liz s. And there s no woman who can afford to miss the epic wisdom of the queen of Sheba.
Ann Voskamp, New York Times best-selling author of" "One Thousand Gifts and The Greatest Gift
In this stunning account of a woman that most people know very little about, Liz has masterfully (and responsibly) brought fresh insights to the story of the mysterious queen of Sheba. Her writing unites imagery and research in a seamless, spectacular way, and I learned many facts that breathed life into a few short passages of Scripture. I walked away from this book inspired to be more like the courageous, bold, wise, humble, and generous woman I met on the page. This might be Liz s best work yet.
Angie Smith, best-selling author of Chasing God and What Women Fear"

--Angie Smith, best-selling author of Chasing God and What Women Fear "Liz Curtis Higgs frequently writes on women's issues. Here she tells the story of the Queen of Sheba. The Bible tells us little about this queen except for her visit to King Solomon in the first 13 verses of I Kings, chapter 10. The queen is intrigued by Solomon's reputation and wants many questions answered. Higgs mixes a bit of fiction with her nonfiction. As an introduction to her work, she pens a brief message signed "Sheba." Concluding each of the first nine chapters is another short note from Sheba, which includes her comments on her situation as it is treated in the given chapter. In this manner, Higgs discusses each of the 13 verses phrase by phrase.
It's Good to be Queen , written in Higgs' down-to-earth, informal style, is well annotated and includes interesting, thought-provoking questions for further study. It also includes comments about the implications of the verses and story for the reader's life."
