Welp. Really shot myself in the foot with this one. I should've written the review when it was fresh in my mind, but here we are without me having much to say. I remember finding it very easy to read, in that is was well laid out and didn't use a lot of superfluous flowery language as can be typical of some theology books for women. Basically, it's really important in the current culture to remember that our identity is not found in our womanhood - the fact that we are women (hear us roar) - but in the gospel and because of our union with Christ. 10/10 would recommend.

"This is a book about a girl named Cora. Her father is a doctor. One day, a family calls about their baby being very sick. On the way there, Cora and her father face many adventures including a prairie fire. This part was scary, but they made it through the fire and got to the house where the baby lived. They helped him feel better. Cora lived from 1887 to 1985."

It's been a while since I read this one, so forgive the short review. I remember liking Rebecca's voice - she's very clear and easy to follow, and gives lots of citations and references for each topic she covers. However, I also remember finishing the book and not being sure that she had real practical things to draw from her "Biblical vision for friendship." I guess I was expecting more and just didn't get it.
