Based firmly in God's design for their lives, this book helps women rethink what true success and beauty look like.

Download or read book Belabored written by Lyz Lenz and published by Bold Type Books. This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Belabored, Lyz Lenz will "make you cry in one paragraph and snort-laugh in the next" (Chloe Angyal, contributing editor at MarieClaire.com). Written with a blend of wit, snark, and raw intimacy, Belabored is an impassioned and irreverent defense of the autonomy, rights, and dignity of pregnant people. Lenz shows how religious, historical, and cultural myths about pregnancy have warped the way we treat pregnant people: when our representatives enact laws criminalizing abortion and miscarriage, when doctors prioritize the health of the fetus over the life of the pregnant patient in front of them, when baristas refuse to serve visibly pregnant women caffeine. She also reflects on her own experiences of carrying her two children and seeing how the sacrifices demanded during pregnancy carry over seamlessly into the cult of motherhood, where women are expected to play the narrowly defined roles of "wife" and "mother" rather than be themselves. Belabored is an urgent call for us to trust women and let them choose what happens to their own bodies, from a writer who "is on a roll" (Bitch Magazine).

I have my own life to lead, and my own secret, romantic novels to write. Samuel Firth has no place in my world. Of course, the only reason Samuel returned to England was to contest my wish for a legal separation. He says he will not grant it--unless I agree to play the role of his wife until his place in Society has been secured. I knew he only married me for my noble name! Yes, I was forced to agree to his sordid scheme. But if he thinks that our bargain grants him access to my bed, then he shall be sorely disappointed. In truth, it shall be quite amusing to lead him on--and then spurn him as he once spurned me! From the private diary of Lady Cassandra Firth

Download or read book HANDS OFF MY DAUGHTER Until After Marriage written by William Pittenger and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hands Off My Daughter Have you ever asked yourself: "How can I protect my daughter from the pull of our culture that declares sex before marriage is normal and acceptable?" You are not alone. Many Christian men face this dilemma. They fear for the future of their children-daughters and sons alike. In this frank narrative, Bill Pittenger reveals the world's deceptive propaganda and philosophies that contradict biblical principles for godly living. He challenges fathers and men of all ages to resist these fallacies. He calls for Dad to accept the helm of the family ship and guide her through the winds and currents of our culture. Bill Pittenger is a cross-cultural minister, teacher, and cartoonist with an MA in social science. He and his wife Shirley taught high school for over twenty years in Bolivia, South America. Bill is active in his local church teaching, mentoring younger men, and counseling married couples in conjunction with Shirley. This book is rooted in Bill's illustrated seminar "Dating, Courtship, and Marriage God's Way" which he has presented to various churches, universities, colleges, and Christian schools around the world. The Pittengers live in Bill's home town in Northern California where the fishing's good.
Download or read book The Displacement of the Body in lfric s Virgin Martyr Lives written by Alison Gulley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Displacement of the Body in Ælfric's Virgin Martyr Lives addresses 10th-century Old English hagiographical translations, from Latin source material, by the abbot and grammarian Ælfric. The vitae of Agnes, Agatha, Lucy, and Eugenia, and the married saints Daria, Basilissa, and Cecilia, included in Ælfric's s Old English Lives of Saints, recount the lives, persecution, and martyrdom of young women who renounce sex and, in the first four stories, marriage, to devote their lives to Christian service. They purport to be about the primacy of virginity and the role of the body in attaining sanctity. However, a comparison of the Latin sources with Ælfric's versions suggests that his translation style, characterized by simplifying the most important meanings of the text, omits certain words or entire episodes that foreground suppressed female sexuality as key to sainthood. The Old English Lives de-emphasize the physical nature of faith and highlight the importance of spiritual purity. In this volume, Alison Gulley explores how the context of the Benedictine Reform in late Anglo-Saxon England and Ælfric's commitment to writing for a lay audience resulted in a set of stories depicting a spirituality distinct from physical intactness.
Download or read book The Wedding Night written by Jane Merrill and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This enlightening narrative takes a look at the wedding night—its origins, history, customs, cultural expressions, and fictional representations through the ages. Though just outside of public view, the wedding night is loaded with expectation and consequence. The Wedding Night: A Popular History is an entertaining, accessible, touching, and humorous volume that looks at the previously unexplored topic of wedding history "between the sheets." Covering a kaleidoscopic array of cultural expressions, this unique study zooms in on what's quintessential and shares insights into the history of intimacy through the ages. The book traces the formalization of the wedding night in the ancient Near East and classical world, provides many examples of historically significant unions in European and American history, and describes the lively variety of traditions leading up to the present. Spicing their narrative with many piquant quotes from contemporary sources, the authors explore the rich cultural context for the wedding night—processions, royal rituals, apparel, food-related traditions, and pranks—throughout Europe and America in the 19th and 20th centuries. Separate chapters examine sex guides, jokes, and the bed as a special conjugal space.
