When I looked around my church one recent Sunday, I saw what the vast majority of churches bear witness to every week: more women than men. Actually the Christian church has always been majority female. It’s ironic, because the secular world frames Christianity as sexist, when, in fact, Jesus and his church have always been unapologetically pro-fem...
The first reason it’s good to be a girl is that we are created by a good, beautiful, and true God. He is merciful and relational, and he delights in you and me. Because we live in a culture that insists we are self-made, it’s worth repeating that we are creatures with a Creator. Remembering and realigning ourselves to the truth that we are God-made...
The second reason it’s good to be a girl is that we are created in the image of our good God. We are imago dei, created to reflect him, to take after him. In her book In His Image, Bible teacher Jen Wilkin shares ten ways God calls us to reflect his character: “God is holy, loving, just, good, merciful, gracious, faithful, truthful, patient, and wi...
The third reason it’s good to be a girl is that we were made for community. After the Lord God created Adam from dust and breathed his own breath into the man’s nostrils, he declared it was not good for Adam to be alone. Eve was made from Adam’s rib, and God commanded the two to be fruitful and multiply. Just as our God lives in community—the Trini...
The fourth reason it’s good to be a girl is we have a unique and compelling calling. Right after the Lord said, “It is not good that the man should be alone,” he said, “I will make him a helper fit for him” (Gen. 2:18). Our twenty-first-century sensibilities bristle immediately at the word helper. Helper feels so secondary, like Adam needed an assi...
The fifth reason it’s good to be a girl is that we are redeemed. Through the work of our Savior, “the gospel . . . re-images us.”7 While the Lord’s image in us was marred by the fall, it is re-imagedin us through Jesus. When you and I surrender to the love and mercy of Jesus Christ, he begins to transform us from the inside out, and we become a new...
The sixth reason it’s good to be a girl is that we have a holy mission before us. We are in that already-but-not-yet place in history. Christ has already come and brought redemption, but he has not yet returned, so we await restoration. But as we wait, we have a calling, a sacred vocation. In this already-but-not-yet time we are called to “go there...
The seventh reason it’s good to be a girl is we have a multitude of examples of God-fearing, God-loving, God-honoring women who have gone before us. Their stories are recorded in Scripture and remind us that while our lives are brief, God’s work in us is eternal. We are threads in his hands, as he weaves the beautiful tapestry of his kingdom across...
The eighth reason it’s good to be a girl is there are countless ways we can be ezershere and now, for God’s glory and for the flourishing of our communities. Like the long list of women above, we each live in a unique time and place, and everything we have and experience, even down to the breath in our lungs, is a gift and purposefully designed by ...
The ninth reason it’s good to be a girl is that we get to proclaim the goodness of our God to the girls coming up after us. It’s our voice that will shape the next generation. My husband and I have heard “It’s a girl!” three times, and we adopted one more, making a total of four little women in our home. Mark’s favorite joke is to say he’s in full-...
Mar 9, 2022 · God created the woman for his ultimate glory and fame. Like the man, the woman was fashioned in the image of God and bears equal responsibility with him to mirror God (Genesis 1:27). To be a woman is not to be a second-class citizen.
May 10, 2023 · A Christian woman should always be focused on bringing glory to God alone in all her thoughts and actions out of a grateful heart for all God’s love to her in Christ (Col. 2:6-7).
