A reviewer from Virginia had this to say:
The book Forsaking All was full of love and truth. The writer really hits many crucial
points on the topic of God and our marital relationships. Truly wonderful
Victoria from Jacksonville FL wrote this:
There are so many things that I can relate to in this book. Thank you for not being ashamed. Yes, I am in awe... There
were things that I understood very personally and there were some things that I did not comprehend; however, there
is so much strength throughout the pages of this book. I must admit that I was somewhat grieved about certain
decisions in the book. However, I just would like to say thanks for your honesty about so many challenges that
people face. From relational, to emotional and financially. Thanks for being so bold.
R.R. from Navarre, FL wrote this:
Your book was very good. I really enjoyed it. I read it in one night. I am really thankful that you were with the Lord
through all this because I really don’t think an unsaved person could have made it without somebody getting hurt. I
pray that a lot of women will hear about it and buy it, It truly blessed me.
Adrienne of Jacksonville FL had this to say:
It's been about a month or so since I've read your book and still today it has impacted my life. Even when dealing with
the challenges of everyday life, I can reflect on the principles that I've learned from your book. I've learned that
everyone has a forsaking all place. If you are a Christian, living and walking with the Lord Truthfully, You Will, have a
forsaking all experience or two, or more. The important thing to glean is the process we are to follow while there. In
your book, you demonstrated the total process. From 1)long suffering, 2)obeying GOD completely anyway, 3)giving
up the very thing one holds most dear, 4)Trusting HIM for Everything, 5)Serving GOD w/ Love and Joy while Healing,
to seeing the manifestation of HIS blessings. Your book expressed very clearly the very biblical principles you teach.
You are an excellent teacher because you live the Word of GOD that you Teach. Thank You for being an effective
witness with evidence.I Love you Sis, God Bless you and Thank you for being for real.

I have read your book, and truly you are a VERY strong individual (praise God). The balance was just right – no
bitterness came across at all (and I think that I had problems!). 1 Corinthians 10:13 really does come to mind

Forsaking All by Phyllis Sanders was a fascinating, enjoyable and educational read. Phyllis tells her story in a way
that you feel as though you are right there with her experiencing her hardships and emotions. But the best part was
being there with her when her life took the turn it did to help others. Her life lessons are for everyone, young and old,
men and women alike. I highly recommend this book as a source of guidance and inspiration to all!
CT of Arkansas had this to say:
I became aware of Teacher Sanders through a mutual friend and mentor. The greatest blessing to me came through
examining myself to see if I was in the Faith. After reading her testimony and seeing how God led her through that
journey and brought her to a Wealthy Place, I couldn't help but praise God for her overcoming! It is too easy to judge
someone else. It is much harder to see someone else's struggle and your own weaknesses at the same time. My
heart has been changed and my eyes enlightened. I'm thankful for her courage to share the story and God's grace to
bless her and cause her to be a blessing to others. I am better for reading the book. I don't see issues as black or
white, right or wrong anymore. There is an area covered by God's grace that we all need at some time in our lives.
Thank you Teacher Sanders for letting us know not to put God in a box. To God be the Glory!
Tracy G. from the United Kingdom wrote this:
Phyllis, I just got in from Switzerland last night. I read your book while I was there and you hit sooo many true-to-life
points. Your book was truly remarkable, but let's face it, it's your spiritual commentary that was "Off The Hook!!!"
Phyllis, girl, you were on-point in every possible way...you can throw a great spiritual body blow and a person won't
even know what hit'em, ha! Ha! Sis, I can't wait for the next book. God certainly blessed your hands when you wrote it...
WOW!
KJ of Florida wrote this
“O taste and see that the Lord (our God) is good! Blessed (happy, fortunate) is the man who trusts and takes refuge
in Him.” Psalms 34:8 And you will take refuge in the anointed words of Sis. Phyllis and this wonderful book,
“Forsaking All”. Never before have I read a book filled with such honesty, openness and love. I became absorbed
from the first page and could not put it down. You will laugh, cry, and be amazed by the wonderful saving grace of
God. This is a must read for every woman who has encountered abuse of any kind. This book will reveal to you that
God does heal and that you can reclaim your life (no matter what the circumstances are). This book will also help
you understand you are empowered by the authority of God to walk into your “new anointing” of freedom in Christ.
2 Corinthians 2:16 says, “For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among
those who are perishing”. Sis. Phyllis’ words reflect the sweet smelling aroma of Christ. You know this is a woman
who has spent many hours in the presence of God. And through her obedience to his Word has received
tremendous healing, healing that you can receive also. Let me encourage you to read this book. You will be forever
changed and challenged to surrender your problems, issues and life to the Lord; and through your obedience to His
Word receive direction, peace and purpose for your life. Be blessed in Jesus Name!
Prophetess Tammy Hooper of Oklahoma City had this to say:
Teacher Sanders book "Forsaking All" is a great epitome of what true obedience is. She openly exposes herself in
an effort to free others. Because of the joy set before her, she endured her cross, despising the shame not only to
the obedience of our Heavenly Father, but also in that He would use her to sound the alarm on the silent torment of
mental and emotional abuse. "Forsaking All" is very provocative and liberating. It made me laugh, it made me sad
and at times left me speechless. You will be blessed and encouraged and I believe, most of all persuaded to
examine your own personal relationship with the Father, His precious Son Jesus Christ and His wonderful Holy
Spirit. Thank you Teacher Sanders and God Bless you.
Shirlene Scott of Jacksonville said this:
There is Hope throughout the pages of this incredible book! I am not a woman who has gone through an abusive
relationship; however, I have received Godly strength from the pages of this book. While reading “Forsaking All”, I
found myself examining my walk and obedience to the Lord. And I began to make adjustments in the area of my
thinking towards situations that try to keep me contained as a believer. Teacher Sanders captures the hearts of her
readers through her integrity, honesty and most of all her love and obedience unto her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
I found this book very practical in the teachings from the Word of God. I have been reminded and encouraged by
Teacher Sanders to confront every situation with the Word of God!
I thank God for you Sis. Phyllis “Sunshine”
B.J. from Port Orange, FL wrote this:
The story of Forsaking All is a journey in ones life that not many are able to walk out. It goes against the tradition of
man and makes one look at his own life and wonder who he is seeking after. I found it a challenge to my own
preconceived ideas and wonder how I have limited God in my own journey. Thank you Phyllis for letting us walk with
you on your journey, and encouraging us to seek after the one who can see beyond our today and into our tomorrow.
I look forward to hearing more of what God is doing in your life.
Pastor Maurice Franks in England said this:
The author faithfully drove nearly 3 hours 'round-trip' every Sunday to my church in England. She was going through a
healing process and rose from being a victim of life to being victorious and teaching and encouraging others. This
book is powerfully written, real and very difficult to put down. An outstanding testimony that has revived me to forsake
all for God.
R.B. from Kathleen, Georgia wrote this:
Good morning TEACHER, I wanted you to know that I finished reading your book and was very inspired, and awed at
how GOD has used you to share your story with others. I am really fortunate that you were in a season of my life. The
Saturday Women’s Study helped me to get closer to GOD. And I know that you have to go through to get to the other
side. I have been seeking his face and I know for me the more I seek GOD’s face he will manifest himself to me.
You have again inspired me to stay in the word for myself. I know for me that I really have to depend on GOD totally
and not on Man!!
A. Jones wrote this:
This book was very delightful. It not only encouraged me but it also gave me strength to go on to my own spiritual
Destiny. Very inspiring!
A reviewer had this to say:
If you are looking for a book that captures your heart, mind and soul, I recommend reading Forsaking ALL. This book
will have you on the edge of your seat. The writer shares her heart so intensely that you can feel it as you read.
Forsaking All is a book that reaches all people Christian and non Christian. It's full of so much compassion as you
read that you don't want to put it down. I can say there is hope for tomorrow. The book reaches to marriage, single,
old, young men and women, to all nationalities and yes, even 'the church'. Her name fits her well, Teacher Sanders.
Again I highly recommend reading 'Forsaking All' you won't be disappointed.
Nadira Bryant - Chief Editor of "Inner Beauty Magazine"
This awesome woman of God has shown us through her book "Forsaking All" that we must be willing and obedient
to walk away from whatever HE tells us to and leave the details up to Him. We never know when God is going to tell
us to give up everything. But we must be willing to lay down our lives so we can gain it in him. The bible says in (Mark
8:35) that whosoever saves his life will loose it and whosoever looses his life for my sake and the gospel's the same
shall be saved. (Luke 17:33) Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall loose it and whosoever looses his life his
life shall be preserved. It is hard to say what you will or will not do until you are put in that situation. I know from my
own personal experience that God can and is capable of telling you to forsake all just as he did to the disciples. They
gave up everything! We don't take the time to think that maybe they had families also. May God continue to bless you
Phylis on your journey in him. I love you and thank God that he allowed us to cross paths.
Reagan from Georgia wrote this:
I found the book forsaking all to be moving and realistic. It was easy to read and a learning tool. It inspired me to
learn more about my Christian walk , it also helped me with some personal self esteem issues that I struggle with. It
will make you laugh, and cry and I highly recommend for any young mother, wife, or friend to read it. A sincere
motivational story of 1 womans triumph and spiritual growth!
L.F. from Jacksonville, FL wrote this:
Your book has deeply touched me in a way that no other book has. Your story is one that many women can relate to
but probably not one that many of us could say we would play out the same way. Your strength and conviction are
unquestionable. Thank you for writing your story and I cannot wait to read the
rest of the story.
Pastor C.K. from Penang, Malaysia wrote this;
"Forsaking All" is the story of a "Diamond" that has gone through tremendous pressure and is still being cut and
being polished to be placed on the crown. "Forsaking All" should be placed in every young men's and women's
hands. It will prepare them in the choosing of their future spouse using God's standard. This book will also help
those who are going through abuse in marriage to live a victorious life in the midst of the storm. I met Teacher
Sanders in Luton, UK in the church where I was ministering. A very teachable person. Only a teachable person can
become a good teacher and Teacher Sanders is one.

FORSAKING ALL is a title that speaks for itself. In this book you will read of Phyllis Sander's life-changes as she
FORSAKES all. Her story tells how she turned a life of promiscuity, wrong decisions,and misguided thoughts into a
life of studying, learning, teaching, patience and acceptance of Gods words. FORSAKING ALL will not only enlighten
it's readers, it will also take them into a higher understanding of God's words and his purpose for the people of this
world. Through Phyllis' story you will understand the reason for falling. "One cannot find a reason to rise up if one
does not first fall down"-~D~The scripture, Mathew 22:14..."For Many are called, but only few are chosen" raises the
question of why are only few chosen? Phyllis Sanders answer in FORSAKING ALL is this, "One reason is because
many people fail to find out what's required of them after they accept the call to salvation. When they do finally realize
what is required of them, they fall back by refusing to do it. Thus, they miss out." Womensselfesteem.com highly
recommends FORSAKING ALL as a very well written book. It is a very enlightening and heart warming read full of
inspiration, purpose and positive direction for all those that cannot find their way to FORSAKING ALL. Thank you
Phyllis Sanders for daring to share the truth of God as you have witnessed Him in your book of religious and spiritual
experiences.
Tina Crumer of Alton IL had this to say:
This book is a true testimony about being a follower of Jesus Christ. It made me look a some of the things God
asked me to let go of to be a true follower. I will pass this book on to friends and share this story every chance I get.
This woman still has Joy.
