Product Description
This new guidebook by leading pastoral theologians challenges much in contemporary developmental theory. Arguing that women's developmental stages cannot automatically be assumed to match those of men, the authors provide a fresh analysis of the rewards and challenges of women at different stages of the life cycle.

Useful as a text or reference, the book sheds new light on developmental themes, passages, and issues in the lives of women from the perspective of pastoral care. From pre-adolescence to end-of-life-passages, from such diverse themes as the developmental context for intimate violence and the impact of trauma on development to issues of women's power and authority across the life-span, In Her Own Time provides a much-needed framework for the pastoral care of women. Designed to be used as either a textbook for students or a reference for pastors and counselors, In Her Own Time takes a probing theological and psychological look at the possibilities and hurdles in the life-span of today's women.

Like Gail Sheehy's Passages, Daniel Levinson's Seasons of a Lifetime, or Mary Pipher's Reviving Ophelia, In Her Own Time will provide a framework--in this case, a religious and theological framework--for seeing the specific issues in the lives of today's women.

Participants in this landmark volume include: Jeanne Stevenson Moessner, Elizabeth Liebert, Judith Orr, Christie Cozad Neuger, Pamela Cooper-White, Patricia Davis, Carolyn Bohler, Carolyn Treadway, Bonnie Miller-McLemore, Kathleen Greider, Irene Henderson, Maxine Glaz, Karen Scheib, Nancy Ramsay, Carroll Saussy, Mary Lynn Dell, Paula Buford, and Teresa E. Snorton. ... Read more

God-breathed
God speaks through the bold and frank voice of the anointed Shellie Warren to share His love and concern for His daughters and their spiritual and physical health.God's truth often smacks us right between the eyes which is no exception in this book, but His grace and love covers us and redeems us.In this book, He provides His daughters a light for their future through Shellie's writing.This is a MUST read for ALL women!

One Bold Book
I have read a lot of great books on purity - but this was the first that didn't gloss over the hard stuff as if it's "not really a problem for women, like it is for men."Shellie writes with great boldness, honesty and truth.Her words are powerful and she speaks humbly from her own life experiences.I highly recommend this book.

Y'all Ain't Ready For Shellie!
Wow... What can I say? This book and the author, are REAL. It is so refreshing to read something from an author who has done so much inner work and processed life to such a refined degree that she already understands what the rest of us are trying to understand. This author has travelled through the valley of the shadow of life and the reader is the beneficiary of her travel notes. She has gone beyond the veil of all things sexual, stared truth in the face and refused to blink. Shelly R. Warren is the real deal, with a capitol R. But don't let the "R" rating fool you. Even though in her writing she is as up to date with contemporary culture as the latest BET/MTV video, she is also EXTRAORDINARIALLY grounded in the Word... a rare combination indeed.

The book maintains the attention of the reader. It is sprinkled with real life excerpts from bloggers and this serves to add more variety and spice to the presentation. The concept of "Sex in Purpose vs. Sex Out of Purpose" is simple, yet practical and profound. The author boldly goes where few Christian authors venture when she takes us on a tour of closet activities. The chapter on Porn in All forms is one of the best on the topic I have ever read in terms of unmasking the cause and effect of the beast. Her experpt from another writer entitled: My Vagina's Monologue is a must read! (Funny yet true.)

The first six chapters seem to deal with life's impurities, and the final four chapters seem to deal with the purification process.The book gets reflective on the "Letter to my former self." The final three chapters examine Godly femininity, perseverance and Purity. Since this book is an official XXX church resource, you should know not to expect an ultra conservative approach to the subject matter. This would be a good read for today's teens, high school and college students, singles and adults who want the real deal from someone who has been there and survived to give an eyewitness inner view.

A MUST READ FOR ALL WOMEN!!!
This book not only challenges the mind but also challenges the heart! It is important for a woman to feel loved and in this book it proves that Gods LOVE is the most important love. The love that we receive from God is so much greater than the "love" we think we receive from "one night stands." In this world, many times as women we are looked at as an object only put here for the pleasure of men, but this book PROVES that we are so much more! WE ARE WOMEN! WOMEN CREATED FOR SOMETHING GREAT, IN GOD!!
I think every woman, young girl, youth groups, and even men need to read Pure Heart! It will ROCK YOUR WORLD!!

Real, Fun and Challenging Read
Shellie has such a way with her words. She is so great at capturing her audience and making them feel like they are right there with her on her journey.
Shellie's honesty, bluntness and love for God challenges you to think deeper about your own journey and how to truly find intimacy and fullfilment in Christ before chasing after guys.
She gives you a raw look into her own life and how it has shaped her.
You will laugh and cry but more importantly, you will discover and experience the power of God's love, forgiveness and healing in your own life! ... Read more
