In God's Image

Preface In God’s Image examines God’s proven love for women in relation to and in contrast with cultural stereotypes, feminist ideals, and misogynistic views. Each chapter assesses the stories of biblical women with focus on how the women overcome various obstacles through God’s love and provision. In God’s Image will help women find new inspiration from biblical truths and tap into their God-given destinies. In God’s Image’s intended readers are women seeking revelation from scripture concerning God’s love and truth. Specifically, everyday women who do not have degrees in theology or Christian studies but those who long to find hope in scripture for their current situations and the struggles of their sisters, mothers, daughters, and friends. Ideally the concepts addressed will spark conversation among groups of women and serve as a means of applicable encouragement when dealing with specific situations. There are many women who love God but fail to experience the fullness of God’s love because they do not invite God into every situation in their lives. In God’s Image’s provides examples of different biblical stories with parallels to current societal situations and demystifies the idea that God’s word is outdated or irrelevant to the struggles of women in twenty-first-century American society. This is not a self-help guide or an ode to the author’s transformation but a journey through scripture with specific attention on the power of women’s stories.
