Countless books have been written about what women can and can’t do, but this book asks the question: What did God make women to be? Rooted in Scripture and listening to the stories of artists, writers, teachers, homemakers, caregivers, shopkeepers―single and married, young and old―Strong Allies calls women in every walk and stage of life to love the people around them in the places where he has planted them, through creating, cultivating, and restoring. Leslie Anne Bustard loved gathering people together, and this generous hospitality is woven throughout this book. While Leslie’s voice guides the conversation, she also invited over twenty different women to join her at the table: alongside Leslie’s teaching, Strong Allies features essays from Karen Swallow Prior, Luci Shaw, Christie Purifoy, and many others, all reflecting on how they have either sought to be strong allies or have been shaped by the strong allies they’ve encountered throughout history, literature, and their own lives. By spreading this feast of examples before readers, Leslie reminds us that we are not meant to fit into one mold but to live out the endless variety and beauty of the Lord, each in our own particular way. Leslie’s vision is one of abundance―not a narrowing, but a broadening, a deepening, that fills the expanse Scripture gives to women without overflowing the banks God’s Word also lovingly provides.
