Book Description
Although women have unprecedented opportunities and options today, their lives are still often filled with the mundane, the difficult, the downright tragic. And the challenges of life become even more difficult when there doesn't seem to be any purpose for them. Without a sense of purpose, our lives can become unmanageable and unfulfilling. These studies will help you discover God's purposes in your life--in your creation, your salvation, and your giftedness; in your work and home life--and will give you the framework you need to live a purposeful life that brings glory and honor to him.

Drawn to Purpose
Author: Martha H. Kennedy
Publisher: Univ. Press of Mississippi
ISBN: 1496815955
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
Winner of the 2019 Eisner Award for the Best Comics-Related Book Published in partnership with the Library of Congress, Drawn to Purpose: American Women Illustrators and Cartoonists presents an overarching survey of women in American illustration, from the late nineteenth into the twenty-first century. Martha H. Kennedy brings special attention to forms that have heretofore received scant notice—cover designs, editorial illustrations, and political cartoons—and reveals the contributions of acclaimed cartoonists and illustrators, along with many whose work has been overlooked. Featuring over 250 color illustrations, including eye-catching original art from the collections of the Library of Congress, Drawn to Purpose provides insight into the personal and professional experiences of eighty women who created these works. Included are artists Roz Chast, Lynda Barry, Lynn Johnston, and Jillian Tamaki. The artists' stories, shaped by their access to artistic training, the impact of marriage and children on careers, and experiences of gender bias in the marketplace, serve as vivid reminders of social change during a period in which the roles and interests of women broadened from the private to the public sphere. The vast, often neglected, body of artistic achievement by women remains an important part of our visual culture. The lives and work of the women responsible for it merit much further attention than they have received thus far. For readers who care about cartooning and illustration, Drawn to Purpose provides valuable insight into this rich heritage.

Women of Purpose
Author: Sara Daigle
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1680993429

Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
100 days of scripture-based devotions for an intentional and abundant life rooted in Christ Why do some women seem deeply rooted in peace and joy—even in difficult circumstances—while others of us struggle daily with feelings of dissatisfaction, worthlessness, or anxiety? Being a Christian doesn’t mean we’re exempt from pain and suffering—but it does mean we are called to a higher purpose and can claim the gifts of the abundant life that Jesus promises. Sara Daigle is passionate about sharing a message of deliverance, freedom, and ultimate love with women from all places and walks of life. Her passion gave birth to this book composed in devotional form with a Bible verse and prayer for each day, focused on leading women out of the labyrinth of their own thoughts into a higher identity and value found in Christ. For those facing uncertainty and life changes, Sara reminds us that Jesus has “come to bring abundant life that doesn't end when one season flows into the next before you catch your breath.” For those who look around and see women who are prettier, more accomplished, better moms, or even “better” Christians than they are, we are shown that “There is no joy fuller than living out exactly what He's gifted us in without comparison to another.” Readers will resonate with Sara’s authentic voice, honesty about her own struggles, and the wisdom that comes through hard times and a rich relationship with God. This devotional is geared to bring even the busiest of women into daily intimacy with God. It is written to help each heart know they are not alone, but destined for a life of meaning, identity, and purpose in union with a Creator God who designed each of us just as we are.

Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
The debate on the role of women in the body of Christ is intense. Most Christian women just want to do what the Bible says. But what exactly does it say? Join Julie Zine Coleman as she clears away agendas and goes directly to Scripture, letting it speak for itself about God's true design for women. "On Purpose oozes with biblical common sense. Coleman addresses the real issues at the core of gender bias in an inviting, 'come let us reason together' way. This book faces these significant issues without the burden of bitterness and is safe for those exploring the issue for the first time." --Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International "At once biblically faithful, academically sound, gracious toward those with whom she disagrees, and accessible to a broad readership." --Ronald W. Pierce, professor of biblical and theological studies at Biola University "Brilliant. . . . Coleman's discoveries, along with her own stories of wrestling with God's call on her life, will shift how you think about God's plans and purposes for women." --Linda Evans Shepherd, CEO of Right to the Heart Ministries "Julie writes with kindness and common sense and with her eyes on the gospel of Jesus. Her exploration of Scripture is easy to understand, and her anecdotes from personal experience are warm and relatable." —Margaret Mowczko, theologian and blogger "This book is filled with biblical research that will open your eyes and heart to God's will for women and men." —Monica Schmelter, TV host for TCN's "Bridges," author, and speaker "Coleman's well-researched commentary on the Scriptures . . . provides answers with an eyes-wide-open biblical perspective. I appreciate her non-offensive candor when addressing questions many women struggle with today." —Linda Goldfarb, international speaker "A thorough and thoughtful treatment of this important topic, vital for church health today." —Dr. Gail Wallace, cofounder of The Junia Project

Book Description
Does your life feel out of control? Do you feel that you are doing so many things that you are doing none of them well? Lisa Brenninkmeyer understands how it feels when life is stuck on the spin cycle. As a mother of seven, she knows we don't just need to be told what kind of women we should be.

Identifying key priorities, and doing first what matters most. Once in awhile, things may seem as if they're under control, but we want to walk with purpose regardless of our circumstances. God wants us to daily experience the joy and contentment that comes from knowing we have given our all to what he considers most important. The abundant and purposeful life we were created to live is just around the corner.
