I've stumbled upon something really really great. I mean, I've heard about this ministry for a little while now and have been told about the book but never really gave it any serious consideration. But the "Girls Gone Wise" ministry is an awesome resource for girls and women.
Their approach is refreshingly simple and hits straight home, at least for me. A lot of Biblical womanhood sites that I frequent talk about how to love and serve your husband or children. I don't know about you, but I'm not in that position at the moment. Although I love love love sites like GirlTalk, some of their advice doesn't apply to me yet. But that doesn't mean that I can't listen and plan for the future. Sometimes, I just want Biblical advice that sits on my level, that understands the battles that I fight as a single lady and the specific ways in which I am tempted to sin.
The thing that sets "Girls Gone Wise" apart is that it's focused on single/dating young women. It challenges girls' worldview and puts the gospel into perspective with their lives. But the advice and council isn't stuffy and dated, like "boys only like girls who wear dresses" or "Godly girls are always quiet". No, they focus on cultivating a heart for the Lord and to serve the church. Because when your heart is in the right place, your actions follow accordingly. I feel like they're speaking straight to me!
But don't take my word for it... check it out for yourself!
