And when we encounter the inevitable struggles of life, we may be tempted to ask God Why me? as we try to reconcile our pain with God's promises. But a far more helpful and life-enriching question for us to ask God is What are you trying to teach me in this?

Life is full of seasons. As women, sometimes we can feel confident and at other times completely invisible, and it is so often easy to get bogged down in the sheer busyness of ‘doing’ life.

By studying their stories, Holly Satterthwaite invites us to see how God reveals his goodness through the female human existence.

There are certainly many factors at play in that reality, but the one I want to target here is a powerful one. It’s the Dad factor.
