This book is absolute nonsense. Not only does it twist the words of the Bible around and take them out of context, it's pretty clear that the women who wrote this were heavily brainwashed and indoctrinated by their father. This book is full of ideas that are dangerous to women, such as girls shouldn't go to college or letting your father choose your husband for you. There's even weird shit implying that a daughter should treat her father like she might treat her future husband, including show more wearing Daddy's favorite colors.

Nauseating and sickening. Sheer fucking dangerous nonsense. show less

This book is laced with binding legalism that just simply does not exist in the bible. The scripture used is out of context and stretched to the extreme to fit man's legalistic views of womanhood confining her abilities to those that do no and can not extend past the home front. Simply put - - - if you want to limit God in the life of your daughter read and apply this book. If you want to release the power of God in your daughter and teach her to ebrace ALL of her identity in Christ choose show more another book. I am a stay at home mom - this is not the life that all women have been called to: Esther was a powerful queen, Deborah a mighty military leader, Anna a servant in the temple, Lydia a business owner, and there are many more that were more than mothers confined to home. Though I believe as a mother my first and foremost ministry is that of my children I know I have been called to much more. I did not complete college only because God called me to a different life, not because of a legalistic view that this would somehow corrupt me as a Godly women.
Carefully look at this book and prayerfully line it up with the Living Scriptures of a MIGHTY CAN DO ANYTHING God! show less

hold on to your chair, this is a powerful book, it takes every thing it talks about right to the Bible, you can't fight God's word! I use this as a read aloud with me teen daughters so we can discuss out loud the different ideas presented. They are not the ideas of the world, I can guarentee that!

Excellent book for preteen to young adult girls. Ideally should be read with a parent. Radical ideas for our time but true and very much needed.
