Biblical Femininity

A Woman's Words
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can win or wound me." We all know the power of words. Words can hurt. Words can heal. And words are sticky--lingering long after they were spoken. Do you remember hurtful words hurled at you in middle school? Have you ever found yourself in the crosshairs of gossip or wounded by the sharp words of another? No doubt, we've all experienced regret over our own words uttered in moments of frustration. You've probably also experienced the healing power of a friend's encouragement during a dark time or the blessing of someone who is willing to tell you the truth in love. In A Woman's Words, Chrystie Cole helps us understand why we struggle to speak words of life instead of death and how to overcome seven common idols that are often found at the root of our corrupted speech.
Redeeming Sexuality
Sex and sexuality can be a confusing and divisive topic, both in our culture and in the church. And because we live in a fallen world, all of us struggle with some aspect of sexual brokenness. Many of us have carried wounds of sexual sin for years-shame over sins done to us, sins we've committed, and wounds that are simply the result of the fallen nature of our world. Redeeming Sexuality takes a deep, biblical look at the roots of sexual brokenness, how it is manifested in our lives, and how we can find freedom and hope in the gospel. In this newly revised, nine-week study, we will examine sex and sexuality from a biblical perspective and take our fractured hearts to a loving Father who is skilled in mending us with love, forgiveness, and acceptance.

Redeeming Sexuality
Sex was God's idea. He created sex and our desires for sexual connection. God also created women and entrusted them with a unique sexual power. This power has the potential to bring life, strength, and healing to others, but it also has the power to manipulate, control, and destroy. Our sinful desires for approval, control, affirmation, security and comfort twist and corrupt God's good creation. Whether self-righteous or self-indulgent, we need to learn what it looks like to steward our sexuality in a way that honors God and serves others in love. This is not another self-help book about sex. You won't find ten steps on how to fix your sex life or simple statements about why married women need to have sex and single women don't. No matter your perspective or experience of sex, every woman needs hope and a vision of how sex and sexuality fits into God's story of redemption.
Waiting While Dating
Dating in modern times can be confusing and seem more complicated than ever. How do you date and get close to someone while keeping God first? When meeting someone new, there are many questions and scenarios to be thought about. Should he pursue first? How often should you spend time together? When should you start attending church as a couple? Should you serve in the same area? When into the relationship should you hold hands or kiss? What do social media boundaries look like? While these specific questions are not directly answered in the Bible, it is comforting to know six couples who kept God first in the relationship and yet each had different answers to these questions and more.

Love Goes to Buildings on Fire
Love Goes to Buildings on Fire by Will Hermes - Five Years in New York that Changed Music Forever 'A must-read for any music fan' (Boston Globe) Crime was everywhere, the government was broke and the city's infrastructure was collapsing, but between 1974 and 1978 virtually all forms of music were being recreated in New York City: disco and salsa, the loft jazz scene and the Minimalist classical composers, hip hop and punk. Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith arrived from New Jersey; Grandmaster Flash transformed the turntable into a musical instrument; Steve Reich and Philip Glass shared an apartment as they experimented with composition; the New York Dolls and Talking Heads blew away the grun...
Book of Etiquette
The only serious competitor to Emily Post as etiquette maven to America between the wars, LILLIAN EICHLER WATSON (b. 1902) was a 19-year-old copywriter for the book publisher Doubleday when she was commissioned to rewrite the outdated Encyclopedia of Etiquette by Emily Holt. This is the guide to good manners she produced in 1921, mining her own experience as a social misfit and would-be social climber, and it was a huge hit with those aspiring to a grander station. Volume II covers: [ how to address servants [ correct dress for the butler [ use of the napkin [ evolution of the afternoon tea [ the man at the garden party [ yachting parties for bachelors [ musicales and private theatricals [ when the lady is asked to dance [ some important rules about golf [ the charm of correct speech [ the eccentric dresser [ poise in public [ and much more.
