What does the term "real woman" mean? Does it mean that you can do it all? Does it mean you sacrifice some things to get other things? In this new book by List Troyer and Dawn Yoder, the answers come from the Bible, specifically Proverbs 31. Come take the journey with them and learn about leading with Proverbs 31 values.
Many women don't like the woman depicted in Proverbs 31 because it is so hard to live up to her example. She truly can do it all, rising early and getting it done. Her family trusts in her and calls her blessed. How does a woman become a leader (example) of others and keep basic values of trustworthiness, loyalty, honesty, etc.? The only way is to follow God's principles. This study helps each woman honestly look at this passage, learn the values, and apply them to her life. Values include: forgiveness, responsibility, and restraint; and each chapter has questions and action steps to help the value stick in your life. It is a study well worth doing whether you are home raising your children, are the president of a corporation, or balancing parts of both worlds.
This is a thought-provoking, convicting study. It has made me think and work on things, and is something I want to start again and do more in depth. I think this is an invaluable tool to all Christian women who want to be the best they can be without compromise and settling. I highly recommend it. I received my review copy from Litfuse Publicity in exchange for participation in the blog tour.
