Be Rebellious by Megan Clinton is a call to young women
everywhere to take charge of their destinies and become the women they were
created to be. In Clinton’s words,”…rebel
against a culture that tries to define success for us…”This young woman has her
priorities in the right place as she confronts our degraded culture. Young women who don't rebel are just being used by the political elite to advance their own careers at the expense of young people's lives.
This book covers material from the Song of Solomon through
the rise of social media. Her examples
of rebels from the Bible are especially inspiring. Rebels don’t have to bomb buildings or hack
into computers or be outrageously dressed.
Mary the mother of Jesus dared to believe an angel who told her God
would use her to do impossible things.
Esther risked her life to save her people by violating a law and going
before the King uninvited. Ruth turned
her back on an idolatrous culture and followed her widowed mother-in-law to a
strange land and an invisible God.
Books like this give me hope for the future. Take heart, America! Not all young women are
spending all their time having one-night stands and abortions while embracing
communism and rejecting family and faith.
Some, like Clinton and her readers, are rebels in the best sense of the
word.
I received a free electronic advance copy of this book for
my review.
