Sold out to Christ, Grounded in God's Word, Determined to Take Risks to Change the World. An appreciation and understanding of strong-willed women---whose nature can glorify Jesus Christ. Many strong-willed women have secretly wondered if there was something wrong with them, if perhaps they just weren't trying hard enough to be good conforming Christian women. Cynthia Tobias provides a compelling and practical way for strong-willed women to come together and identify themselves to each other and the world. In Christian circles, women are often reluctant to come right out and say they are strong willed and proud of it. They have somehow been persuaded that God wouldn't approve of a woman who is so---well, nonconforming. After all, isn't the virtuous woman supposed to be quiet, holy, and subservient? Tobias reminds readers that the single most important thing they will ever do is accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. But beyond that, God gave each person their unique personality, gifts, learning styles, passions, and desires. He created and designed each person before they were even born. Whether readers sees themselves as strong willed women---or just need to understand the strong-willed women in their life---Redefining the Strong-Willed Woman provides powerful insight and encouragement for all types of women and men.
It's easy to recognize a strong-willed child. Difficult to discipline, at times impossible to motivate, strong-willed children present unique, frustrating, and often exhausting challenges to those who care for them. But now, the miracle parents long for can happen. Offering new hope, achievable goals, and a breath of fresh air to families and teachers, Cynthia Tobias explains how the mind of a strong-willed child works - and how to use that information to the child's best advantage. From the Hardcover edition.
