Discover Your Dignity, Part II

Discover Your Dignity:  A Woman’s Journey Through Life, Parts I and II- (Part I leads a woman from conception through mid-life and Part II leads a woman from mid-life through preparation for eternal life.)  In keeping with the mission of Endow, which is to educate on the nature and dignity of women, it is appropriate that we come to rest on this particular topic and ponder what the Church has to say about how God’s workings manifest themselves throughout the course of a woman’s life.   In a very real sense, our life on earth is a journey to heaven.  These study guides invite us to ponder how that is so.  

The authors are four Religious Sisters of Mercy of Alma, Michigan, each with a different area of expertise.  Each chapter will discuss events and milestones in a woman’s life from four different perspectives: the biological, psychological, philosophical and theological.   The stages mentioned are not ages exactly, though ages are included to better orient readers to an approximate chronological period.  It is understood that each woman is an individual and the details of her particular life are her own.  Still, there are many shared similarities and issues that surface at particular stages in life and it is those that will be examined.  It is hoped that each of us will find ourselves on the pages and come away with a deeper understanding of our God-given dignity.   Discover Your Dignity:  A Woman’s Journey Through Life reminds us that God has a design for a woman’s development that includes her body, mind, and spirit.
