Book Overview

"The Lord God said, 'It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him." -Genesis 2:18

God did not make a mistake when He made men and women different. He had a distinctive plan and a distinctive purpose for each, stamping the helper design upon women at creation.

It's About Time!

I found this book to be a breath of fresh air in Christian literature aimed at women. Susan Hunt clearly outlines God's amazing and unique design for women(an empowering design) - a refreshing contrast for Christian women caught in the tug-of-war between feminism and Biblical interpretations of women's roles. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in finally having a solid foundation on which to base their identity as a Christian woman or leaders interested in great material to pass on to others. Susan Hunt has done a great job!

The most definitive book on Biblical womanhood I've read!

Susan Hunt holds to Biblical precepts when discussing God's design for women - how women were created differently from men - for a purpose! This book does not teach women to return to the kitchen and slave to men. This book opens the eyes of women who are unsure of why God made them differently in the first place. I am a stock broker and single mom, and I found this book to be intellectually stimulating and by no means stifling. It was refreshing to read something so practical and God-glorifying.
