But there are lots of books that I like to read that Grant has never even attempted to read – it’s my own little library of books on biblical womanhood. I started it when I was 15 years old with Passion and Purity by Elisabeth Elliot. I have since read everything this woman has ever put in print, and outside of my mother, she has probably impacted me the most in regards to what it means to be a biblical woman. I think every Christian girl should have a biblical womanhood library. A collection of solid, theologically sound books that she can read often and lend to her friends.

I have been missing my books. They are all in storage. Here is a list of the ones that have impacted me the most (that I can remember off the top of my head).

A Woman After God’s Own Heart by Elizabeth George

Becoming God’s True Woman edited by Nancy Leigh DeMoss

Choosing Gratitude by Nancy Leigh DeMoss

Did I Kiss Marriage Good-bye? by Carolyn McCulley

Feminine Appeal by Carolyn Mahaney

Let Me Be a Woman by Elisabeth Elliot

Lies Women Believe by Nancy Leigh DeMoss

Lies Young Women Believe by Nancy Leigh DeMoss and Dannah Gresh

Passion and Purity by Elisabeth Elliot

Radical Womanhood by Carolyn McCulley

So, one day when Grant is a pastor and has his glorious library of books, I am going to have a special bookshelf (maybe I’ll even paint it pink), of my own little library of books written by godly women who have impacted and shaped me.

Now if I can only get my mom to write a book 🙂
