Track: A Student's Guide to Womanhood cover

Who decides what it means to be a woman? We’ve been let down by the constantly changing narrative from oppressive men and quarrelling women in a society that is driven by consumerist agendas.

 

Our creator, God, has only one agenda: our good and his glory. Abigail Dodds’ short, readable book tackles this important topic and shows the beauty of the role that God has created for women. The Bible offers a clear vision for women: in God’s story, we’re victors not victims.

 

Addressing key questions, this book is crucial reading for any young woman who seeks to glorify God. What does it mean to inhabit a female body, a female mind? In what ways do women reflect God’s glory? What does the Bible say about the role Christian women play?

Track is a series of books designed to disciple the next generation in the areas of culture, doctrine, and the Christian life. While the topics addressed aren’t always simple, they are communicated in a manner that is.

 

With the intention of the content being absorbed, examined and applied, each chapter includes a summary of the main point, and reflection questions that can be used individually, in 1–2–1 mentoring or in a group setting.

Today, many claim that the Bible is bad news for women. Nothing could be further from the truth! In this accessible and engaging book, Abigail Dodds shows that God’s creation design is good news – for all of us!

Womanhood is God’s good gift to humanity, and this book is a gift to the church. Crucial for today’s cultural climate when our kids are being conformed to the world’s ideas of identity, Track:Womanhood compellingly calls girls and young women to rejoice in who they truly are. Moms, discuss this book with your daughters! Youth group leaders, pass these out generously! Pre–teen and teenage girls, read Track: Womanhood and think deeply about what it means for you to be a woman.

-- Keri Folmar

Do you know that there is eternal purpose and meaning to your womanhood? It runs deeper than your skin, your clothes, your relationships, and even your self–perception. With honesty, wisdom, and clarity, Abigail Dodds reveals that God’s vision for our gender, our bodies, our singleness, our marriage, is so much bigger than that of the world. And Abigail strengthens our arms: demonstrating that though we live in a battle to preserve God’s biblical womanhood, we are not victims but women victorious in Christ!
