Seeking to rediscover the full reality of what it means to be female, this book looks to God’s Word as the foundation to help Christian women to live out their callings as free and authentic members of Christ's mission.

A Woman Through and Through

In a culture that can belittle womanhood on the one hand—making it irrelevant—and glorify it on the other—making it everything—it’s hard to know what it really means to be a woman. But when we understand womanhood through the lens of Scripture, we see that we need a bigger category for what God has called “woman.”

This book breathes fresh air into our womanhood, reminding us what life in Christ—as a woman—looks like. When we see that we are women in all we do, we can be at peace with how God has created us, recognizing womanhood as an essential part of Christ’s mission and work.

Now with a redesigned cover.

Focuses on God’s Word as the foundation of womanhood
Written in response to past and current beliefs about womanhood, some that glorify womanhood and some that belittle it
Identifies how Christ empowers women to live out their various roles, including marriage, work, singleness, ministry, and more
Now with a redesigned cover replacing 978-1-4335-6269-3
