Inspires women to engage with life and culture in a God-honoring way.
How should we think in a Christian way about modern life: about the things we watch, read, eat, think about, and do? There are so many voices saying so many different things that it’s tempting to either disengage from modern culture completely, or let ourselves be influenced more and more by the world.
This book is designed to help. In short, easy-to-read chapters, the writers will get you thinking biblically about food, films, and social media, as well as discussing larger cultural topics such as body image and racism. Whether you dip in and out or read it through with a friend, you will be equipped to be beautifully distinct in the way that you engage with the world around you and even shape it for Christ.
Contributors include Jen Wilkin, Courtney Reissig, Jackie Hill Perry, Dannah Gresh, and Karen Swallow Prior.
