Let Me Be a Woman

Who are you?

Many Christian women rarely, if ever, ask themselves that question. But knowing who you are as a woman—and as a Christian—can make a real difference in how you see yourself and others.

Elisabeth Elliot, author of A Chance to Die: The Life of Amy Carmichael, explores Scripture to help you find answers that make a difference. She suggests the place to start is by asking not “Who am I?” but “Whose am I?” In Let Me Be a Woman, she writes candidly about what it means to be a biblical woman, and she unabashedly tackles tough issues, including:

• Godly submission in relationships
• The single life
• Self-discipline
• Masculinity vs. femininity
• The right kind of pride
• What makes a marriage work

With advice on being a wife, following Christ, love, and faith, Let Me Be a Woman feels like sitting down for a mother-daughter conversation or a heart-to-heart with a wise friend.

Whether you are young or not so young, single, engaged, married, or widowed, you will better understand how you fit into God’s plan, and you will come away with a wonderful sense of peace about who you are as a Christian woman.
