Synopsis

So many women in the church today are exhausted by the mistaken belief that God\x27s purpose for them is rooted in what they do. We\x27ve come to believe that if we try hard enough, we can measure up; if we marry the right man or have enough children, we\x27ll have arrived; if we do the right studies and read the right books and volunteer more, we\x27ll be \x26#34;good Christian women.\x26#34; This belief is wounding the hearts of women in the church\-\-all because of a misunderstanding of God\x27s purpose for us as women. It\x27s not rooted in what we do, it\x27s rooted in who God is. In his loving plan, he created us to imitate him and to find true flourishing by living as his image. Elizabeth Garn takes us to Genesis to reexamine the all\-too\-common misconceptions that surround image bearing, filling and subduing the earth, and living as women in God\x27s world. When we see what God has created us to be, we will see what we are free to do\-\-to imitate and glorify him in all the ways he has gifted us.
