Book review by Rosanne Burck
Book: Who Do You Think You Are?
Author: Dr. Kristin Beasley with Jodi Carlson
Just be yourself! Be true to who you are! Be the real you!
Voices come at us from every angle with this message. But, as a female and a Christian, who am I, really? And who has had input into my definition of who I am? Women of all ages around the world are confused about this. We know this as we see young women in the U.S. attempting to emulate the sex-drenched images of our culture while attempting to “act like men” in the workplace. Women in the Middle East and other parts of the world are silenced and shrouded in attempts to deny their very existence as females. Women everywhere are in desperate need of God’s truth.
Dr. Kristin Beasley, in her newly released book, “Who Do You Think You Are?”, presents liberating answers about who God created each woman to be. As Dr. Norman Wakefield, Professor Emeritus of Phoenix Seminary states on the book’s back cover, “This book is grounded in biblical truth and wisdom that touches the heart.”
I found this book of 10 chapters to be very enjoyable, but thought-provoking, reading. In Part One, Dr. Beasley begins with an assessment of the many distorted views of womanhood in society, culture and religions to show us how many women are living with a wrong or incomplete view of their value. Part Two presents truth about women’s significance in a way I have never seen presented before – how each Person of the Triune God “answers one of your three core needs as a woman.” Part Three is application – what to do with the truth discovered in Part Two so women can take hold of their God-given uniqueness and serve Him.
The back of the book contains reflection questions that can be used for personal study or with small groups. Pick up this book today for yourself, your ministry team, your daughters and the other women in your life. You will not be disappointed!
You can buy it directly from Greater Reach Ministries to support their vision to reach out across the world to lift up women and touch them with a message of hope that inspires and equips them to be all that God made them to be.
