Description: | Women today inhabit and excel in every profession, yet many Christian women wonder whether their work really matters for the kingdom. In this eight-session study, Katelyn Beaty, the youngest and first female managing editor of Christianity Today, insists it’s time to reconsider women’s work. She challenges us to explore the theology of work and consider new ways to live in the office, the home, in ministry, and beyond. Starting with the Bible’s approach to work, including the creation story, the woman in Proverbs 31, and some New Testament models, Beaty shows how women’s roles in Western society have changed; how the work-home divide came to exist; and how the Bible offers models of women in leadership. Readers will be inspired by stories of women effecting dynamic cultural change, leading institutions, and living out grand and beautiful vocations. Far from insisting that women must work outside the home, Beaty urges all believers into a better framework for imagining career, ambition, and calling. Whether caring for children, running a home, business, or working full-time, all readers will be inspired to live in a way that glorifies God. The resource encourages us to value the contributions of all family members and those of people of various skills in our society. Presenting a game-changing look at the importance of work for women and men alike, the eight sessions are: 1) Made to Reign (9 min) 2) Why “Leaning In” is Good – and Not Enough (10 min) – looking at racism, mentorship and sponsorship 3) Our Generous Worker God (9 min) 4) Women have Always Worked (7 min) 5) You are Female and it is Good (9 min) 6) How She Does it All (7 min) 7) A Fruitful Life (8 min) 8) Embracing Ambition (7 min) NOTE: Session 2 includes an interview on Skype, which is best viewed with the close captioned feature in operation. 8 sessions 7-9 min |
